Kreative Kangaroos

Green Acres Camp is so lucky to have a pool right on our campus! Our pool has a shallow end with a multiple-step entrance, which allows our younger swimmers to comfortably enter and stand in the pool. 

Because we want campers to develop a love of swimming, we do not require children to do anything other than to dress in their bathing suits and come to the pool. 

While in the pool, campers will engage in a series of group games and activities. These are specifically designed to help campers gain pool safety and swim skills throughout the summer. 

Green Acres Camp follows guidance from the American Red Cross regarding thunder/lighting safety for outdoor pools. We also follow all guidance from local and state governments as they apply to outdoor activities and our pool throughout the summer. 

The Kreative Kangaroo room opens right onto a one-of-a-kind playground, featuring a large sandbox, a ship to climb on, and extensive play areas with swings, several play houses, and numerous climbing structures and slides. It's shaded too!

Everyone looks forward to something special each week, and Green Acres does not disappoint! From Super Hero Day to Halloween Day , our spirit days are always fun!

In addition to spirit days, camp holds a number of special events including: the Fourth of July parade, unit special days, and a staff vaudeville show at the conclusion of camp. You can be sure to hear campers sharing about these exciting programs in addition to their already fun-filled days!

Each day, your camper’s counselors will create fun and unique projects, games, and activities for a special part of our day called “Unit Choice Time.”

Campers always look forward to this time, as it adds a fresh, exciting twist to every camp day! You can expect them to come home each afternoon with new stories and experiences to share.

Where better to do crazy fun science experiments and explore the world around us than at summer camp? While in our Young Explorer program , campers will learn in a hands-on and ridiculously fun environment. 

Get ready for a burst of creativity in our art class! We explore unique projects inspired by nature and fresh takes on traditional art techniques in the Kaleidoscope class. After finishing their daily project, campers can enjoy watercolors, drawing, stencils, and beading.

Lights, Camera, Rhythm, ACTION! Campers will discover the magic of storytelling, improvisational theater, and the joy of music and movement. Through interactive games, rhythm exercises, and creative play, they’ll sharpen their quick thinking, build confidence, and express themselves through sound, motion, and laughter. Whether they’re acting, dancing, or making music, this experience celebrates creativity, collaboration, and fun!

Campers have fun and develop teamwork skills through a variety of games and activities. Sometimes campers will play classic sports like hockey or basketball! Other times, they will participate in Green Acres favorites like noodle tag, parachute games, or relay races

Adventure awaits! Campers will step into the great outdoors to explore, create, and care for the world around them. From nature walks and animal identification to hikes that awaken the senses, Rangers will discover the wonders of our campus environment up close. They'll use natural materials to craft beautiful art and learn how to be thoughtful environmental stewards through hands-on activities and exploration. Every day brings discoveries, fresh air, and a deeper appreciation for the planet we call home.
