| Whether it’s for one week or the whole summer, youngsters who attend The Salvation Army’s Summer Day Camp come away from the program with a variety of experiences — and a stronger set of values.
The summer day camp program includes in-house programs such as gym, and arts and crafts, as well as educational, religious and musical activities.
Field trips are an integral part of the summer day camp program — trips to amusement parks and zoos and attractions around Wisconsin, locations that the youngsters might not otherwise have access to, as well as visits to places in and around Green Bay such as the National Railroad Museum and the Packer Hall of Fame. A typical week also includes visits to swimming pools in the community, as well as visits once a week to the Brown County Library.
The summer day camp program is open to young people ages 7 to 12 and parents can sign up their child for anywhere from four weeks to the entire summer. Many young people return year-after-year, their parents secure in the knowledge of where and how their children are spending the summer.
The adult supervisors attempt to give the youngsters as much love and respect as possible and provide them with as much emotional and spiritual nourishment as we can. |
