Kids Take Charge
Every aspect of our program is designed to put kids in charge of their own learning experience. At Steve & Kate’s, campers choose from a variety of activities in real-time, as they design their day at camp. As kids try, fail, and learn on their own–they learn to trust their own judgment. These will ultimately be the kids who are prepared to tackle the challenges of an ever changing world with creativity and confidence.
Fair, Flexible, & All-Inclusive Fees
This winter we’ll be open for two ‘weekly’ camp sessions: Dec. 20–23, and Dec. 27–30. Reserve one or two winter sessions, made up of 4 Day Passes each, without worrying you’ll lose what you don’t use. If your plans change for any reason, we’ll automatically refund any unused Day Passes in full in January. Fees include lunch, snacks, and all hours & activities.
Advanced Reservations Required
Modifications are required for both registration and rollout of activities as we navigate pandemic protocols. This winter families will be required to reserve their weekly sessions prior to attending camp. In order to provide care for as many full-time campers as possible, we ask that families please only reserve the session if they plan to attend the full, four-day week. Still, pandemic or not, we’ll refund unused days if anything comes up.

Fees
Flexible and Fair
For as long as COVID regulations require it, registration will be in weekly blocks, or four-day blocks for Winter Camp, instead of by the day (which is our norm). So, please think about your plans in weekly increments and plan to purchase enough Day Passes to cover your full, four-day session(s). That being said, we know that things happen. If you do miss a day, we’ll still refund it automatically at winter’s end. Learn more about our automatic refund policy here.
We also offer need-based financial aid to qualifying families. Learn more or submit an application, here.
Our Day Pass includes lunch, snacks, and all hours 8:00am to 6:00pm.

We want to meet you and your camper. Our directors work year-round and would love to help you learn more about our program and at the same time learn more about you and your camper.
This will be Mike’s fifth season at Steve & Kate’s Camp. Before that, Mike taught middle school science for seven years! Outside of camp, Mike enjoys watching movies, reading comics, and weight lifting, and can generally be found hanging out in parks with his daughter.
This year Mike is most excited to see what creative projects and events campers dream up. Last year his NY site hosted a fashion and talent show, and he hopes to continue those traditions this year.
Still have questions? We’d love to chat and see how we can tailor camp to you! Get in touch with Mike, your local Director:
