Welcome to the official Camp Bobcat site!

Keeping your child busy for an entire Summer Break can be challenging. Finding affordable but trustworthy childcare can be even more of a challenge. Camp Bobcat may be just what you need! Camp Bobcat is designed to provide a safe and fun environment for your child while they continue to learn new and exciting things and spend time with their peers! This year there will be a few new things happening at Camp Bobcat!

Camp Bobcat is divided into 3 different groups: 

Kitten Care is for children in PreK including students coming out of the K2, K3, or K4 school year. These students are also required to be fully potty trained. These children do not leave campus but will participate in exciting activities on campus! Each day they will create a craft, make a snack, perform a STEM activity, play outside, sing songs, and watch an educational video that all correlates with the theme of the week! 

Lynx Care is for children coming out of the K5 and 1st grade school year.   Field trips are optional for this group! Please contact our office with questions about field trips for this age. If your child cannot travel off campus, we will still have exciting activities brought to them on campus! Each day they will create a craft, make a snack, perform a STEM activity, play outside, sing songs, and watch an educational video that all correlates with the theme of the week!

Wildcat Camp is for children coming out of the 2nd-4th grade school year. This group will leave campus to go swimming on most Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays at a local pool, weather permitting. These students will also leave campus most Thursdays for field trips associated with the theme of the week! In addition to exciting field trips, they will also participate in exciting activities on campus! They will create crafts, make snacks, perform STEM activities, play outside, and watch educational videos related to the theme of the week! These students will also have allotted time each day for AR reading and taking quizzes.
