D1: 1ST-2ND GRADERS
(Grade completed before start of camp)
“Put me in Coach, I’m ready to play”
Fun, learning, and excitement are just around the corner! If your camper has completed 1st or 2nd grade, then D1 is the camp for them! D1 is known for its zealous spirit, its dedication to creative, crazy fun and its sports and adventure specialties that challenge campers to grow. Let your camper choose a specialty for the week, and they will receive over an hour of quality instruction each day from a seasoned coach who focuses on the whole child: mind, body, and spirit. Not only will your child learn the value of trying their best, working together, and achieving goals, they’ll also have an amazing time doing it! On top of that, D1 campers visit our amazing pool facilities five days a week with extended pool times added this year! Come see why 1st-2nd graders can’t get enough of D1!
