Our summer operation hours are 7:00am - 6:30pm, Monday through Friday, and begins the first Monday after Pequannock public schools close for summer. Camp is offered to children from kindergarten to 8th grade. Children are encouraged to participate in activities such as swimming, arts & crafts, STEM, sports, field trips, special events and more!
