Summer in the City

Monday, June 5 - Friday, July 28, 2023. 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 traditional campers can come as early as 7:45 a.m. and stay as late as 6:00 p.m.

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. Pick up is in the same location, you will need to call the school (816) 931-8614 upon arrival and your child will be walked out.

Yes, lunch and snacks are included. Students are welcome to bring their own lunch and snacks.

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).

All of our staff members attend an intense training before camp begins. All of our staff members and student volunteers will have their First Aid, CPR certification. All staff members must pass a background check.

Only Toddler through Pre-K campers who are registered for afternoon traditional 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 Traditional Camp in the morning, eat lunch, and then head to a specialty camp in the afternoon (or vice versa.) 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. (Community Connections, Piece of Cake, City Market Chefs, Watermania, Girl Scouts)
