No Child Left Inside - Join the SLT summer camp program
Submitted by paula on Sat, 06/18/2016 - 5:45pm
Now that school is out, the City of South Lake Tahoe Recreation Department is offering their summer program, South Tahoe Adventure Camp (STAR).
STAR Youth Camp is designed for children ages 6-12 years (entering grades 1st-6th), Monday-Friday 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., June 20 – August 19. The camps’ slogan is..."NO CHILD LEFT INSIDE!” Their mission is to provide an active, healthy, and safe environment for youth to learn and play. We focus on inspiring a love for the outdoors through exposure to the natural playground in and around the Tahoe region.
The structured programs include a strong emphasis on promoting and recognizing positive behavior, fostering meaningful friendships, and developing children's self-confidence and leadership skills. We continue to encourage kids to get outside, play games, and make healthy choices.
The cost of the STAR Youth Camp is $35/day or $150/week. There is an additional cost for some "Fun Trips" at no more than $10 per child. A 10 percent discount is offered for multiple children registered from the same family. Drop-in’s are welcome and based on availability. Pre-camp care is available at an additional cost of $8/hour. Camp Care punch cards may be purchased on-site and redeemed in 15 minute increments as needed throughout the summer.
Ages: 6-12 years (entering grades 1st-6th)
Staff: STAR Camp team is experienced in outdoor education, First Aid/CPR, and youth leadership.
Location: Recreation & Swim Complex at 1180 Rufus Allen Blvd. South Lake Tahoe, CA
Dates & Times: June 20 - August 19th, Monday thru Friday, 8:30 a.m.-5:30 p.m.
