Celebrating our 31st year of operation!! “No Child Left Inside.”  Licensed by the state of Kansas for ages 6-12, we’re getting back to good old-fashioned fun in the great outdoors. Look no further for a fun and safe environment for your kids this summer. Another summer is quickly approaching and it’s time to make plans for a summer of fun activities and good friends.  We keep really busy doing a wide variety of challenging and interesting units:  sports and games, crafts, lots of silly camp songs, creative dramatics, canoeing, archery and even roller skating once a week. And most importantly, we will SWIM every day that pools are open.  Many of our camp staff will be returning this summer with their crazy nicknames.  Most activities take place at beautiful and spacious Gage Park. Our camp philosophy emphasizes “old fashioned” camp values, safety and FUN.
