About Active Body Smart Brain Camp

Overview

This camp is something different. We understand that parents don’t want only a safe place for their kids while they work but also to ensure their kids are active and learning during this off-school period. That is why, we’ve formed partnerships with teachers, artists, and college students volunteers to deliver a unique summer program where real and fun learning happens, while kids are exposed to martial arts, arts, science, reading, arts & crafts, and games. The field trips are designed to explore the wilderness and allow kids to damp of the heat with pool time. Let’s not forget the popular pizza & movie time on Fridays!

The program is designed with children and parents in mind. It is customizable, affordable, yet engaging, and flexible with before and after care available. See the tentative schedule and prices page for more details.
