Fremont Thanksgiving Camp

All year long, kids find themselves encased in rigid structure.

When school’s out, we give them what they desperately need — freedom to expand and evolve. At Steve & Kate’s, campers choose which activities they do, whom they do it with and for how long. For kids, this experience is pure joy. It’s also a kind of training ground for life, where they’ll need to be empowered and independent and resilient and responsible for their own decisions. Happy human-ing starts here.

Grown-ups adore freedom, too.

We’ve described the magical gift you give your kids when you empower them to make their own decisions. Now let’s talk hardcore convenience for you:

Buy Day Passes and send your kid to camp any day you want? Check.
Drop them off and pick them up whenever you want? Yup.
Long camp hours, all included in your camp fee? Totally.
Tasty meals and snacks, also included? You bet.
Get an automatic refund for unused days at the break’s end? For sure.
Do you desire this kind of freedom? Yes, you do.

WHAT IT COST

Activities

The camper’s dilemma.

Coding. Sewing. Making. Sporting. Lounging. Every day, campers face the excruciating task of choosing from these and many more engrossing activities. Some select a mix of many. Others burrow deep into one or two. Every morning, they face a brand new day bristling with terrible trade-offs and tantalizing possibilities.

Animation — Kids will create, direct, and produce stop-motion animation movies & shorts with our custom animation stations.

sewing_girl3 — Hand & machine sewing are available for campers of all ages as well as options for embroidery & creating accessories or other artistic flare.

maker_boys — Explore creativity through crafts & inventor kits to construct take-home projects or collaborate on large-scale builds. Our leveled-up arts & crafts materials are designed to foster curiosity & exploration.

nintendo_girls — Enjoy motion-based games like Switch & Just Dance, plus a new puppet theater & party props.

lounge_2 — A communal place to socialize & play with table games, cards, & puzzles, or create and experiment with art & crafts.

WS_features-min — Campers & staff join together to play indoor playground games, sports, or whatever kids are interested in that day. And to spice things up we'll have a surprise activity or performance this camp session!

Testimonials

These people are very smart. You should listen to them.

It was like a supervised free form play date with only good and shareable toys!

Andrea F.

(My daughter's) first day was a blast. She was very happy about it when she came home and had only good things to share. Keep up the good work !!!

Sim

[My child] was beaming when I picked her up this afternoon! And she hasn’t stopped talking about all the great things about her day since then! When her dad got home and asked her how it went, she asked if she could come for a thousand days more. This is our first experience with Steve and Kate’s camp and I have to say I’ve been incredibly impressed so far. I enjoyed how much information you have online so we had a good understanding of what we could expect. Registration was quick and easy. The facility is great. The options are fantastic - lots of choices and impressive stations. And now express check-in makes it easier still.

Lindsey

Staff

So much more than
a job.

For our team members, giving kids the space to liberate their true potential becomes a kind of calling. Think of them as a high-energy, warm-hearted crew of child advocates who deftly balance two invaluable skills — that of providing structure and guidance, and that of staying the heck out of campers’ ways. If that’s not enough, they’re all background-checked and trained in CPR and first-aid. Say “hi” to them at camp — they’d love to meet you.
