We are a locally, family- and veteran-owned camp and after-school program that loves helping kids stay active, make friends, and have fun in a safe, supportive environment. Our programs combine movement, teamwork, and play to create positive experiences children look forward to each day.


We service six local elementary schools, including transportation from school to our program's location. Each week features a rotating mix of supervised games and physical activities. Programs serve elementary-aged children (K-5th) and are led by trained, background-checked staff who focus on safety, encouragement, and inclusivity while making sure every child feels welcome.


When school is out, the fun continues! We provide Day Camps and Seasonal Camps on days when PSD, Liberty Commons, and Ridgeview Classical Schools are closed. We also offer Summer Camp with a fun and different theme each week to keep kids creative and engaged! Camps run Monday through Friday, from 7:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., offering full-day coverage that fits a variety of family and work schedules. Camp days are packed with active play, arts and crafts, and opportunities for kids to build friendships and confidence in a well-supervised setting.


As a local program, we’re proud to support families and schools in our community. We have helped raise local schools thousands in donations and volunteered our services for a variety of events and activities.


Business Review

"I can’t say enough good things about this place. The team here pours real attention into every student, whether it’s during Krav classes or the kids camps. They don’t just teach skills, they genuinely care about helping each person get better. You can see the effort in how they coach, how they interact, and how they tailor their instruction to different learning styles." - Janelle W.


"We found this summer camp after hours of searching for just the right place for our son. We felt lucky to get in, but little did we know just how amazing this would be - our best summer yet! The leadership is incredible with the values they uphold and instill in the kids they care for - safety, respect, confidence, kindness, creativity and fun. There were different themes each week, great communication, fair pricing and a whole lot of positivity. Highly recommend - they are doing it right!" -L.C.


"Our kids had a fantastic time this summer and we'll be signing them up again. We've tried a number of local camps over the past few years and this is definitely one of the best. Wonderful staff, creative activities, and good organization & communication. They take safety seriously, too. We also appreciate having the option for an earlier drop off and later pick up than many other camps." - Tiffany K
