Summer Camp
2024
Join us for two weeks of adventures here at Sacred Hearts where we find God in everything we do. Each day will consist of activities to nurture your child’s curiosity and inspire their mind, body and spirit: including art, music, movement, dance, nature exploration, science, gardening, group projects, outdoor games and more.
What makes it different? Each day a local community specialist visits with the children to bring their life’s work to them. In doing so, they share their talents, explain their process and introduce them to something new. We then take those ideas and themes and use them to inspire the rest of the days’ activities using a integrative multi-discipline approach. In between we say our prayers, go to Mass, and find gratitude in each moment. Children have fun, learn more about their community and grow closer to God and one another. It’s a good, wholesome experience.
Kindly click on one of the following camp sessions, where you will be asked to complete a form to sign up. Then make your payment to complete your registration. Thank you!
More than one child? Family discounts of 10% will be applied.
