The HAC Difference


HAC Summer Camp offers athletics and exploration themes for ages 6-12, or fitness fun specialty camps for ages 8-12 years. Our junior camp for ages 3-5 mirrors a preschool setting with added fun themes and activities. Full day, part day or any mix, you select the camp attendance option to meet your family's needs.


Our before and after care is included in camp tuition, as is "Pizza Friday" and some field trips/visitors. All campers can participate in morning recreational swimming and campers ages 6-12 are eligible to participate in our pop-up Spanish and Youth Yoga classes. All camp groups will incorporate use of our state park with trails, playing fields, classrooms, and indoor gymnasium. Snacks, lunch, and activities will take place in our classrooms.

Our Campers

HAC PAC II

*Must have turned 3 years old by Dec. 31, 2023 and be potty trained

HAC PAC III

Ages 6-12 or have completed kindergarten

HAC PAC III campers can choose from athletic, fitness, or exploration themes for their camp weeks.

  • Athletic Camps

    Campers are broken up into groups based on their birth date and enrollment for each session. Campers have a morning snack, swim either in the outdoor pool or the indoor beach entry pool depending on their swimming ability. In the afternoon, our campers have structured outdoor playtime along with free play in our gymnasium or classroom. ***On high-temperature days, alternate activities take place indoors.


  • Exploration Camps

    Exploration campers enjoy swimming, a snack, and their arts and crafts theme in the morning. In the afternoon, these campers dive into the more physical part of their day with outdoor play, and gym games. ***On high-temperature days, alternate activities take place indoors.

  • Specialty Fitness Camps (ages 8-12)

    These themes feature health, fitness, sports, yoga, and more and have a schedule that alternates with the athletic and exploration camps. Instead of swimming in the morning, our fit campers enjoy water play in the afternoon before blending with the larger group for the rest of the day.
