GIVE YOUR CHILD A HEADSTART THIS SUMMER

Future Stars Rising Stars Day Camp is a program specifically designed to foster social, emotional, and physical growth in our youngest campers as they begin to explore the world of athletics.  

Campers participate in an age-appropriate program that builds fundamental skills of the core sports, complemented by additional activity periods focused on creativity, education, and character development.

The program has its own dedicated space that serves as "home-base," where campers play fun classroom-style games and partake in creative learning sessions.

Each week is unique and features special events such as Challenge Island educational workshops, petting zoos, face painting, tie-dye shirt creation, dress-up days, visits from local police and fire departments, and more.
