Extend the Summer Splendor

Since summer is never long enough, we’re extending it via an all-outdoor Block Party, which is a unique blend of timeless outdoor games, street fair vibes, and free play. Our block parties are all about low-tech, high-energy activities that celebrate the joy of being outside–one last time before heading back to school.

Goodies for Grown-Ups

We get it–you deserve to stretch out that summer freedom, too. While our Block Parties are just for kids, we have plenty of benefits for adults as well. Just like all our programs, families can join us for any number of days. There are no weekly sessions or advanced commitments required. And if anything changes, we’ll refund all unused Day Passes automatically after the session has completed.

Activities

Block Party Activities

Our focus on low-tech, outdoor fun helps campers disconnect from screens and reconnect with other campers through engaging activities, games, performances, and workshops. Our campus will be split into the six designated outdoor spaces below that campers can flow freely between–designing their day in real-time.

THE FIELD

We’ve revitalized the excitement of field day with a diverse array of games–both classic and new–to keep kids engaged and moving. Capture the flag, slip-n-slides & water games, pick-up soccer, freeze tag, and/or parachute games are all possibilities in this space.

What camp costs.

Perhaps you are a grown-up who loves to plan. Or maybe you’re an expert of the fine art of logistical improvisation. Miraculously, our camp fees are designed to scratch both of your respective itches. Buy any number of Day Passes, and use them whenever you want during the Block Party. Don’t even bother to let us know when you’re coming — just roll up. If your plans change, don’t sweat it. We’ll automatically refund your unused Day Passes in full at the end of the season. We also offer need-based financial aid to qualifying families, too. Learn more and submit an application here.

Day Pass fees cover the entire Steve & Kate’s Block Party experience, including lunch, snacks, activities and the entire day from 8:00 am to 6:00 pm.

Includes: Lunch, snacks, activities, and all hours, 8am–6pm

  • Buy any number of Day Passes and use them any day we’re open for this Block Party
  • Unused Day Passes are automatically refunded in full at the end of the season

Lizzy joined the S&K team in 2023! She enjoys making memories with friends and families by attending concerts and events. When not at camp, you can usually find her soaking up the natural beauty of Portland with friends and family, exploring the city’s vibrant culinary scene, or enjoying live music at concerts.

This year Lizzy is most excited to make a memorable summer for each camper, and can’t wait to play some kickball along the way.
