Discover Fun and Friendship


For over 30 years, campers spend their days making memories, forming friendships and having fun at the SUMMER@FCDS. With a variety of activities indoors and outdoors, SUMMER@FCDS is a place for laughter, adventure, and learning. Each day is filled with sports, arts and crafts, visual and culinary arts, swimming, technology and more. 
 
Summer@FCDS offers a full day co-ed camp program for kids entering Kindergarten through 9th grade. Our 2023 season includes 6 week-long sessions from June 20-July 28.
 
Our week-long sessions provide an atmosphere of learning and fun, with highly qualified, experienced educators (many of whom are full-time FCDS faculty) who are committed to providing a positive experience for every child. 
 
Camp is held on the 20-acre FCDS campus, where campers love cannonballing into our pool, letting their imaginations run wild during arts and crafts, playing games and honing new sports skills outdoors, and having a blast with new friends all summer long!
