Baxter Close Summer Explorers Camp
Have fun under the sun this summer! This camp gives campers the thrills of summer in a fun and safe environment. Activities will include backyard summer games, STEM activities, fun at our outdoor waterpark, and more! A healthy snack is provided daily. On-site “Field Trips” will come to the branch weekly! Campers will be swim tested every Monday/Tuesday morning.
