So Many <strong>Camp</strong>s<br />
THEME CAMPS - BY AGE<br />
Welcome to the wonderful world of Dovercourt. For many<br />
years, theme camps have been a trademark of our camp<br />
programs. Our programming team works hard all year round<br />
to plan innovative and imaginative age-appropriate themes<br />
that will spark curiosity and intrigue in every camper. Weekly<br />
themes are enhanced with games, crafts, special events, visits from<br />
guests, and out-trips to exciting locations. In <strong>2023</strong>, our theme campers will<br />
be grouped according to school grade for maximum friendship building.<br />
Check out our <strong>2023</strong> Themes:<br />

<strong>Camp</strong>ers who have outgrown the imagination and<br />
excitement of the theme weeks are ready for Youth<br />
Zone. Youth Zone camps are geared toward<br />
kids entering grade 6 and 7 and offer a full<br />
week of a wide variety of activities especially<br />
for them. Each week include some exciting<br />
out-trips, for example zip-lining, trampolining,<br />
or rock climbing as well as more ‘chill’<br />
activities like enjoying ice cream at the<br />
beach, or a photography lesson.<br />
SPECIALTY CAMPS<br />
- BY INTEREST<br />
Dovercourt offers a wide range (more<br />
than 40!) of specialized week-long<br />
programs catered to a specific area<br />
of interest/skill, from Fishing to Band,<br />
or White Water Rafting to Pastry Arts<br />
and everything in between. Some specialty<br />
camps are developed and delivered by talented<br />
Dovercourt team members and others are offered<br />
in partnership with other local experts, instructors, or<br />
organizations. <strong>Camp</strong>ers in these programs can expect to<br />
spend at least half the day on focused instruction and the<br />
rest of the day is balanced with other activities.<br />

and teamwork in a noncompetitive<br />
environment.<br />
