Parents are welcome to visit any camps their children attend. Parent-staff conversations are always invited. Many of our camps have special Family-Invitation Events that generally take place on Friday of each week. In the case of children with severe allergies, we may issue a food alert for the week that child attends camp. Due to the high frequency of peanut allergies, we ask that all snacks and lunches contain no peanut items. CAMP DESCRIPTIONS  ART ADVENTURE 1 (AGES 6-14) YOUTH 204Are you an artist?
