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. ACTION! Campers will discover the magic of telling stories/improvisational theater, sharpening their quick thinking and spontaneity while laughing and collaborating with others. Through a series of interactive games and exercises, they'll build confidence and learn the art of thinking on their feet.

Get ready to groove to the beat and feel the joy of making music. This exciting activity is designed to be a fun and engaging introduction to the world of rhythm and movement. Whether you're a budding musician or a dance enthusiast, this class offers a taste of various musical genres and dance styles.

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
