Day Camp
At Solebury School Day Camp, we keep our campers busy with a variety of activities that build their confidence, help them learn and grow, and keep them smiling! Our staff loves spending the summer with children, and we are dedicated to making each day a time to remember and cherish. Our small size offers children the attention we feel they need, and our flexibility and extra services benefit today's parents.

Small Size
Campers are divided by age with a target group size of 14-18 campers. 我们的营员与工作人员的比例为4:1,以确保您的孩子将在一个他们知道的地方, understood and safe.
Activities
营员们每天在我们美丽的140英亩的校园里参加各种各样的活动. Every year we strive to provide activities based on camper preference. Some activities might include:
Swimming: Campers swim daily in Solebury's solar-heated outdoor pool. Like everything else at Solebury, 这项活动是教学(从基本游泳到初级救生)和游戏(自由游泳)的结合, pool games, and diving). The pool is always staffed by certified lifeguards.
Sports: 运动:我们相信孩子应该被允许做孩子,运动应该是有趣的! Some instruction in such sports as soccer, wiffleball, and basketball will be combined with games new and old. 这方面的一些例子是“夺旗”、“踢圆锥体”和一直很受欢迎的“红色漫游者”!
Art: We let kids' imaginations run wild! 营员们学习绘画、绘画、雕刻——但最主要的是,他们学会了从艺术中获得乐趣!
Flex: 这个活动有时会让露营者一起工作,因为他们学习如何作为一个团队解决问题, 有时他们会做一些个人活动,比如制作友谊手镯,有时他们会在这段时间里表达自己想做的事情. This is why it’s called “Flex”! It’s flexible in terms of what they do and how they choose to do it!
A FEW NEW ACTIVITIES ARE COMING FOR 2024!!! STAY TUNED!
Special Events for Summer 2024
Because we have campers who only spend a portion of their summer with us, we host an event/theme each week so that each week is special!
