Elementary age kids enjoy our camp because of interaction with children
their own age and the wide variety of activities offered. Parents appreciate
our camp because they know it is quality care for their
kids. Our small group size and low adult-to-child ratio are critical
in providing a comfortable atmosphere for participants. Additionally,
the release of children is monitored to ensure that they are released
to the appropriate person.

Summer Day Camp operates out of the Boys & Girls Club of Corvallis
facility at 1112 NW Circle Blvd. Camp participants will enjoy our Computer
Lab, Game Room (pool, Ping-Pong, foosball, bumper pool), Art Center, gym,
and many other fun program spaces. Breakfast, lunch and an afternoon snack
will be provided at no additional fee for each child (Breakfast and lunch
are prepared by the Corvallis School District).
This year we continue our tradition of weekly Cabin groups that allow children
to bond with old and new friends of the same age group. They will choose
from a menu of exciting activities that correspond with that week's theme.
Cabins allow the activities to be tailored to the children's specific skill
level and interests so they will be creatively challenged, while still
having a chance to relax and play.

Special field-trips will include places like Oregon
State Fair, Fort Vancouver, Oregon Dunes in Florence, OMSI in Portland, and the Oregon Coast Aquarium
in Newport.
Tuesday and Wednesday field trips are at extra
cost. Thursday field trips are included in the basic price.
We feel that positive adult interactions are crucial to a child’s well
being, so we have made finding quality staff a priority. We hire youth
development professionals with backgrounds in early childhood development,
education, recreation and other child-related areas. Our staff all have
First-Aid/CPR Training and undergo a criminal background check. We staff
our camp at an approximate ratio of one adult for every 12 children.
