Adventure Day Camp Schedule & Weekly Themes

Week 1: Spirit Week | 6/26-6/30 – register by 6/12 (for Week 1 and summer package)
Adventure Day Camp is back to kick off the summer with some camp spirit! Spirit week will offer different daily themes such as beach day, sports day, crazy day, and more!

Week 2: Party in the USA | 7/5-7/7 – register by 6/19
It’s time to explore different cultures and areas of our very own United States of America! Party in the USA will have campers learning about different activities that are well known within different states. Some exciting events will be “visiting Hawaii” by having a luau with and learning to hula and “visiting New York” during fashion week where campers will have a model runway competition by dressing up their camp counselors. Campers will also participate in patriotic activities.

Week 3: Disney Week | 7/10-7/14 – register by 6/26
Adventure Day Camp will have a week filled with all things Disney! Campers will play a variety of games that are Disney-themed, including Disney character trivia. During this week campers will get to learn about different feelings and emotions, including ways to express them based on the Disney movie- Inside Out. With all things Disney, there is nothing that screams Disney more than Disney Theme Parks. Since Adventure Day Camp can’t go visit one, we will have a day turned into our very own Disney Park!
Campers should also keep their eyes peeled for "hidden rubber ducks" all week at camp- inspired from the "hidden Mickey Mouse heads" in the Disney Parks.

Week 4: Survivor Week | 7/17-7/21 – register by 7/3
Do you dare to try a week filled with challenges, obstacles, and puzzles modeled after the original TV completion: Survivor?? This week is also incorporated into a camp classic called "Color Wars" where campers compete for points every day. Campers will be divided into groups this week and have to work with their "tribe" for points. Challenges and activities will resemble some from the show. One challenge will include each tribe making their own cardboard boat, to hold their camp counselor in. The camp counselors then have to race these boats in the pool, and whoever places first will win their team points. This is just one of many challenges campers will face this week and at the end of the week the tribe with the highest points will be named "Adventure Day Camp- Tribe Survivor."

Week 5: Color Wars | 7/24-7/28 – register by 7/10
Bring your team spirit for another week filled with competition and fun. Color Wars is a camp tradition where campers will combine into groups with a designated color and utilize different skills and techniques for different activities throughout the week. Color Wars’ concept stresses the importance of sportsmanship, spirit, and camaraderie. Teams will have different themes, banners, team chants, costumes, and even a talent show. Teams will score points and at the end of the week, one team will be awarded the Camp Champion.

Week 6: Water Discovery | 7/31-8/4 – register by 7/17
As Adventure Day Camp comes to an end, it’s time to cool off with a week filled with water activities.
