Day Camp
Aldersgate Day Camp
Our Day Camp staff includes an experienced coordinator and staff hired specifically to meet the needs of the Day Camp population. All must meet strict standards required for working with youth. Staff is hired according to standards set by the American Camp Association, the Rhode Island Association of Camps, and state law.
We offer two programs:
-Day Camp, for campers aged 6-12
-Extreme Day Camp, for campers aged 12-15
The fee for each program is $140 per week, and includes lunch. Register for 5 or more weeks and receive $5 off the weekly fee!
Day Camp: The Aldersgate Day Camp experience focuses on an adventurous camping experience. It is open to children who have reached age 6 by June 30, and are not more than 12 years of age. We might explore the wilderness of Camp Aldersgate and learn the different types of plants and animals that live here. We play wacky new games where we might have to pretend to be ants or traffic lights! Arts and crafts are always a must when we attend Day Camp. We might make puppets or tie dye a cool T-shirt. Then a counselor might tell us an interesting Bible story during rest time. We will go swimming daily, so bring your bathing suit and towel! Each week of Day Camp, we will explore different exciting themes that are created around the gifts of our summer staff.
Extreme Day Camp: Extreme Day Camp is for veteran campers or new campers who want to have outdoor adventures in a fun atmosphere. It is open to youth who have reached age 12 by June 30 and are no more than 15 years of age. Learn new leadership skills, do your summer reading, build self-confidence and self-esteem by helping young campers and having fun with your friends. You will also get to enjoy the ropes course, participate in a camper’s choice service project, and have some off-site adventures a few times during the summer. Have fun with swimming, boating, and sports time each day.
