Davis Summer Camp sign-up season has arrived! For those with school-aged children, it can all get a bit stressful: spending time searching for which camps have started registering, when they’re open, what they entail, how much they cost—all before you’ve even ditched your winter coat.
But fret not! Here at The Dirt, we are gathering a list of summer camps, registration dates, brief descriptions, and links for you. And we’ll keep updating it as we learn more. Hopefully, this list will save you some time and allow you to enjoy—rather than dread—the anticipation of summer camp season.
Tips!
- Ensure your child meets the age/grade requirements for a given summer camp.
- Double check the dates and verify all information independently.
- Keep refund policies in mind! Some camps will give you a partial or full refund if you provide enough notice.
