In each one-week Denver Junior session, campers have fun making friends and connecting with their counselors and nature.

These young campers are outside as much as possible, including trips to open space trails and local parks.

The highlights of this intentionally planned program include: hiking, fishing, teambuilding, crafts, stories and camp songs.

We are also excited to continue our partnership with the Stapleton MCA!

PLEASE NOTE:We have had to change the age range for this camp to 5 & 6 year-olds, NOT 4 year-olds. This was a hard decision based on challenging licensing requirements. We apologize for any materials you may have received that indicated the program was open to children under 5. Please contact us if you have further questions.

 

Once we get on the bus in the morning, we are off to nearby natural areas such as Rocky Mountain Arsenal, Bluff Lake, Westerly Creek and other nearby natural spaces.

At these areas we hike, explore, learn and play! By midday we return to our basecamp for much-needed downtime with a craft, story or quiet game.

Each Junior session is one week long with its own theme.We also offer a M/W/F option.

Price: $320 for one week. Discounts, payment plans, and camperships are available.

Dates: Sessions run weekdays every week from May 29 - July 20.

Ages: 5 - 6 (Pre-K and K)

Each day, campers are picked up and dropped off at locations around Stapleton on the way to and from their daily excursion.

We have our own big yellow bus! Camp starts on the bus as counselors lead songs and check in with each camper.
