SOMERVILLE, MA
Somerville Spring Break Camp
Here, we put kids in charge.
Preposterous? Possibly. Effective? You betcha.
When you trust kids, they trust themselves. For 42 years, we’ve put kids in charge of their own learning experience. As they try, fail, and learn on their own, they learn to trust their own judgment, and tackle the challenges of an ever changing world with creativity and confidence.
Campers choose activities minute to minute–deciding what they want to do, and for how long. Our job is to get out of their way, cheerlead creative risks, and provide just enough guidance to make sure nobody does anything totally* senseless.
*Totally senseless: By our definition, mistakes aren’t senseless. They’re how you learn.
Buy any number of days. Use them any time. Get refunds for unused days.
Buy any number of Day Passes to use any day we’re open this spring session. You don’t even need to tell us when you’re coming–just show up! And if for any reason your plans change, we’ll refund your unused Passes automatically in full at spring’s end.
Lunch, snacks, and all hours, 8am–6pm, included.

TYLER
He/Him
This is Tyler’s third year directing with Steve & Kate’s! When not at camp you can generally find Tyler reading a graphic novel outside, while enjoying too many snacks. (Actually, can you ever have too many snacks?)
This winter Tyler is looking forward to seeing all the returning campers!
