Campers entering 5th–8th grade as of Fall 2026 are invited to our free Summer Camp Kick-Off Event. Campers and parents may stop by anytime during the event. This event is designed to help campers feel excited, prepared, and comfortable on campus before their summer camp experience. Attendees will enjoy light food and drinks, participate in a campus scavenger hunt while creating a summer swag bag with all their “bear necessities,” and meet other campers who may be attending the same camps. Parents will also have the opportunity to explore campus, ask questions, and ensure their daughter feels confident and ready for her week(s) at UA. Don’t miss out on the fun!

WSSL faculty Mr. Steve Cossey, Miss Erin Winkles, and Mr. Zack Zackmann invite campers to a week of meadow play and water adventures! Campers should wear clothes that can get wet and dirty as we transform the meadow into a cityscape of castles, channels, and dams. Together, we’ll build and test boats, exploring why some float while others sink, all while sparking curiosity and creativity in the great outdoors. While the majority of the camp experience takes place outside, campers will enjoy a daily indoor restorative moment for rest, relaxation, and quiet connection. Indoor space will also be available as needed in the case of inclement weather.

CAMP 45 is for our friends who are entering 4th or 5th grade. These campers get a chance to experience a three night camp with other pre-teen campers.
