The Secret to Summer Fun!
Camp at Chesterbrook Elementary offers fun-filled summer programs for children in Rising 1st – Rising 6th Grades.
Each week, campers jump into action as they participate in outdoor and indoor games and sports, get messy with exciting science projects, become involved in performing and creative arts, learn sportsmanship and teamwork, attend special events, and explore the natural world around them.
Our campers have the opportunity to embark on fun adventures while expanding their horizons during the summer. Our exceptional program and dedicated staff create an environment that forges lifelong friendships among our campers and create a summer experience that is unforgettable!
It all starts with our outstanding Camp Counselors.
A camp is only as good as its staff, and we are extremely proud of ours. Talent, creativity, love of children, leadership and devotion make our camp counselors the heart and soul of the program. We take our camp programs seriously and our staff members have been trained well to provide the best experience for your child. Camp counselors and specialists are doing exactly what they enjoy most: spending a summer inspiring campers to explore, reach for new heights, and expand their horizons.
Camp at Chesterbrook Elementary gives you choices.
Camp includes five days of activities, from 8:30 am – 4:30 pm, with extended care available at no cost. We offer a range of outdoor activities, as well as indoor activities conducted in our fully air conditioned facility. You can also choose to add specialty camps, optional swim lessons and even catered lunch. These additional enrichment options operate during regular camp hours, which offer even more choices for our campers and provide a convenient parent experience.

On-Site Swim Lessons Get your child swimming this summer with targeted swim lessons conducted by our certified lifeguards. Our swim lessons follow a proven, sequential curriculum to meet your child where they are and accelerate their swimming ability forward. Due to the small class sizes, each camper is able to receive significant one-on-one instruction with one of our lifeguards, allowing your camper to get the most fun out of each lesson.
Special Guest Performances Select Fridays during the camp season, we will have a camper assembly with a special guest performer! These performances include a mobile video game theatre, a magician, a juggler, an interactive painting session and more. Please see the Chesterbrook Academy Elementary Summer Camp Schedule for specific dates of special guest performances.
