With the Hudson Valley and Beacon in particular being so rich in the arts, agriculture and a great outdoors scene, options for summer day camps are plentiful. Most camps offer weekly themes with daily projects and activities that reinforce each theme. You can definitely give your child a well-rounded summer that not only keeps them entertained, but very busy. Age groups and times vary among the summer camps. Several camps are offering early drop-off and late pickup for working parents, or for families with more than one child going to different camps. The tough part will be making a decision from among the themes and committing! The good news is, you don't have to choose just one. Use this Summer Day Camp Guide to mix and match for your family's schedule.

PREPARE YOURSELF:
You’ll need the following for most camps:
   •   Medical forms
   •   Packed lunch (Have fun with lunch boxes! Play has a bunch of cute metal ones (Echo, Beacon Natural Market and Utensil have reusable bags and/or organizational items.)
   •   Water shoes
   •   Bathing suit and towel
   •   Sunscreen
   •    A big bag to pack all of this stuff in
This Guide starts with summer day camps that offer sessions with the most hours per day, followed by niche camps with shorter days.

Stony Kill Foundation Summer Explorers Camp is a place where kids are empowered to explore the outdoors and experience a sense of curiosity and appreciation for the natural world. Camp is held on the grounds of the beautiful and historic Stony Kill Farm Environmental Education Center in Wappingers Falls, NY.

Summer Explorers Camp provides a balance of structured and free play with environmental exploration, enjoyment of arts and crafts experiences, and age-appropriate learning activities. These experiences encourage kids to be curious and appreciate the outdoors while building social and life skills.

Through camp, we hope to spark a lifelong love of learning and outdoor exploration, forge a deep and enduring connection with the natural world, and inspire kids to be environmentally conscientious citizens of the future…all while having a ton of fun in a beautiful farm setting.
