Camp of Dangerous Deeds and Derring-do

Page Content

REGISTRATION IS CLOSED. 

What if there was a summer camp that let your kids be kids? Remember when kids played outside all day and were never bored? Remember when kids only came back home in the summer at dinner time?  This camp reintroduces kids to the forgotten art of how to have fun outside and be independent.  We'll teach them how to make and break things.  Have you ever thought about what would happen to a watermelon if you dropped it off a 10-story building?  Have you ever wondered how far you could throw a raw egg? Of course you have! Our campers will answer those questions and will discover many more universal truths as we let them revel in the joy of childhood.  These camps are based on the books The Dangerous Book for Boys and the The Daring Book for Girls.
