Extended Day Camps: Ideal for commuter campers looking for the full camp experience. Includes 7+ hours of daily running instruction, lunch, dinner, and evening activities. Extended Day camps typically run from 9am-8pm or 9pm daily.

Day Camps: Day Camps offer the same great instruction and games as our Overnight Camps, but allows campers to return home after a hard day’s work. Day camps typically run from 9am-3pm or 4pm daily.

Unfortunately, we cannot offer scholarships due to NCAA regulations. Our affiliation with NCAA coaches and schools puts us in a position where any scholarship money can be seen as an inducement to a future collegiate athlete. This puts our coaches and our host universities in jeopardy of damaging their status with the NCAA and incurring penalties at the hands of their organizing body.
