We invite you to join The Mountaineers for five days of summer camp activities and fun at home! Camps will run in morning sessions for 2.5 hours for campers aged 6-12, and each week includes a field trip to the Seattle Program Center at Magnuson Park.

Virtual Day Camps - July 27-Aug 28

With King County in Phase 2 of reopening, we have launched Virtual Summer Camps for our Seattle campers. These camps, happening the weeks of July 27, August 3, August 10, August 17, and August 24, give young explorers the opportunity to learn while staying safe at home. 

Campers aged 6-12 are invited to join us for an interactive online week of summer camp from their own home. Each week consists of classic summer camp songs and games as well as lessons covering everything from first aid and navigation to knot tying and native PNW plants. We'll provide an activity box of materials for the week's lessons, and you provide a positive and fun camp attitude!  

Camps will run Monday to Friday each week, and each session will follow a similar format. Mondays will be Mountaineers and mountaineering-skills focused, Tuesday through Thursday will consist of rotating outdoor curriculum, and Fridays will be fun and funky crafts to end the week on a joyful note! Every week will be different, and campers are encouraged to join us for multiple weeks. 

Each week will include: 

  • An Activities Box with the supplies you’ll need for a week of outdoor-oriented crafts and activities. Boxes can be picked up from the Program Center the Friday before camp starts.
  • A day of in-person activities at the Seattle Program Center. Campers can join us for climbing, swimming, crafts, and tie dye in groups of 8 or fewer.  
  • Small group learning environments facilitated by awesome counselors in Zoom breakout rooms.
  • All of the games, songs, and fun of traditional summer camp!

Keeping each other safe and healthy is incredibly important during this time. Our traditional summer camps may be canceled but that doesn’t mean fun also has to be. Sign your campers up today and bring the joy of summer camp directly to your living room!
