Classic Camp



Heading into its 19th Summer, the Classic Knockaround Day Camp is a coed, full day camp for children ages 5-11. Nestled between Muir and Revelle College and utilizing the Main Gym facilities the Knockaround Camp takes advantage of our unique access to the vast campus resources in creating a daily schedule that keeps children active from the early morning until the late afternoon.

By blending scheduled activities with free play time, Knockaround Day Camp provides children the opportunity to learn new skills, develop game strategy, and engage in positive social interactions in a friendly, extended family type of environment.

An example of a weekly schedule is in the table below, but no two weeks are the same at Knockaround. The campers are broken into groups of 20-24 by age but the whole camp is together for the majority of each afternoon. We have all sorts of exciting special events and entertainers that we include along with the fantastic programming included in each session and we wrap up each session with a big pot luck party! Drop off is from 7:45 - 8:50am and this is free time for the kids to play on our basketball courts, field, ball walls, or just relax and play some cards or board games with their friends and counselors. From 9:00am to 12:00noon we break the morning into three one hour sections which include a free-time game led by the counselors, arts and crafts, gymnastics, rock-climbing once a session, and a variety of special themed activities. We eat lunch all together on the Muir Field from 12:00-1:15pm and have free time games going on both on the field and on the outdoor basketball courts. After lunch we swim each day in the Natatorium indoor pool until 2:15, we provide a light snack for the campers after swimming and then are altogether in the Rec Gym and Home Base in the afternoon until 4:15pm. The campers are dismissed back out to the pick up area by 4:30 to be picked up by 4:45pm unless you have included After Camp Care which allows them to be under our supervision free of a late charge until 5:30pm.
