PRE KAMP VAIL | Ages: 30 months to 5 years
Pre Kamp Vail recognizes the recreational desires of young children and how to provide adventure for children with little legs and big spirits. The low camper-to-counselor ratio allows your camper to receive individual attention as they enjoy self-directed play, arts and crafts, songs, games and a daily adventure outing.
CAMP VAIL | Ages: 5 (AND entering Kindergarten) to 12 years
Vail's premier day camp invites children to experience the countless activities of Vail's unique alpine setting in an engaging and inclusive environment. Campers tailor their day by choosing from a wide variety of sports, art and science activities or special outings.
CAMP ECO FUN | Ages: 4-11 years
Camp Eco Fun offers children hands-on learning about the natural environment at the Vail Nature Center, plus crafts and activities that support the weekly ecological theme. VRD Community Programming partners with Walking Mountains and the Vail Nature Center to provide children an opportunity to playfully explore the natural world.
CAMP ECO FUN CAMPOUTS | Ages: 6-12 years
Spend the day with fun-filled explorations and games (including exploring by boat at Sweetwater Lake). Enjoy dinner over a fire, then sleep in a tent and wake to breakfast before returning to Golden Peak for pick up.
MAD SCIENTISTS | Ages: 7-12 years
Explore science to a depth rarely achieved with elementary-age children. Young scientists will gain a better understanding of how the world works through experimentation, building and revising. Children come home with fun toys that teach science. Topics include rockets, engineering and collisions.
