Summer in the City

Monday, June 2  - Friday, August 1, 2025. We are closed the week of July 4th.

Camp hours are 9:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. and 1:00 p.m. -4:00 p.m. We do offer extended hours for no additional fee. Both specialty camps and day campers can come as early as 7:45 a.m. (for free) and stay as late as 6:00 p.m. (for $15/day).

Not at all! All campers age 3 - Grade 8 are welcome, and there's no requirement to be a currently enrolled St. Paul's student. Note: We typically do not offer care for age 2 and below, but students who are entering St. Paul's as an Early Learner (age 2) for the 2025-2026 school year are welcome to register for Summer in the City.

Drop off is directly in front of the main entrance (Main Street). Parents will need to walk their student to the sign in table where a staff member or volunteer will get the student checked in. Parents are welcome to walk their camper into the school. Pick up is in the same location.

All campers can register for weekly Specialty Camps. These camps run Monday-Friday, and are offered in the morning (9 a.m. - 12 p.m.) and the afternoon (1 p.m. - 4 p.m.) Specialty Camps typically follow a specific interest and allow campers to dive into a new passion or topic. Note: Specialty camps for ages 3-4 (Preschool and PreK) will only be offered during the morning.

All campers can also enroll in  Day Camps which follow weekly themes. Day Camps also allow for more flexible scheduling since families can register for individual days as opposed to entire weeks.

Yes, lunch is provided for full-day campers (it's complimentary) and snacks are included for all campers. Students are welcome to bring their own lunch and snacks.

Half-day campers can purchase lunch for $7 at the drop-off table in the morning, and pick-up for these half-day lunch campers is 12:45 p.m. (Note: Even if a half-day camper brings their own lunch, they still need to pay the $7 lunch fee.)

Students should wear play clothes and comfortable shoes (tennis shoes preferred). For specific specialty camps, campers should note the required items listed in the camp description. Students will also need a labeled water bottle and nap items (if applicable). Most importantly, students should bring a labeled bottle of sunscreen each day.

All of our staff members attend an intense training before camp begins. All of our staff members are First Aid and CPR certified. All staff members must pass a background check. Our student volunteers are all trained and most are First Aid and CPR certified.

Only Preschool and Pre-K campers who are registered for afternoon day camp will take naps; a nap is not provided in our specialty camps. Please be sure to send nap items.

Yes! Campers can attend day camp in the morning, eat lunch, and then head to a specialty camp in the afternoon (or vice versa.) If your student is signed up for a morning and afternoon camp, our staff will ensure they get to the right afternoon camp location after eating lunch and recess.

There are plenty of fun specialty camps that are only offered in the afternoon, so be sure to check out the camp catalog and sign up! 

Some of our camps will take field trips throughout the summer! All field trip fees are included in the camp fee.

We work hard to plan, staff, and prepare a fun and high-quality summer camp experience for all campers. Because our planning and staffing commitments begin well before camp starts, the following cancellation policy applies:

• Cancellations received on or before May 15, 2026 - A full refund will be issued, minus a $50 non-refundable deposit.
• Cancellations received after May 15, 2026 - A 50% refund of camp tuition will be issued. 

No refunds will be given for cancellations made after camp begins or for missed days.

If a class must be canceled due to low enrollment, families will be notified at least two weeks before camp begins, and a full refund will be issued.
