Explorer Day Camp is a local travel camp where children ages 4-14 grow and develop through our enrichment-based programming and local trips.
Our program is designed to let campers explore their interests through sports, art, music, science, and more. We empower campers to build their OWN camp program — and they thank us later!

Explorer Day Camp offers a variety of activities to spark curiosity and awaken your child’s many interests. Campers explore individual talents, try new things, make new friends, and most importantly, HAVE FUN!

Each week, campers build their own day camp schedule, choosing from two enrichment activities per period — swimming, soccer, arts, science, wildlife, strategy games, tennis, music, and much more! With “Discovery Day” field trips and other camp-wide events, no curious mind is left behind.

Prices include transportation, daily activities, trips, towel service, and a Glatt Kosher lunch.

Extended care is available for additional fees.
