Recreational Camp

(GRADES 2–8 | 1-WEEK SESSIONS)

Usdan’s Recreational Camp Program provides an opportunity for campers to experience the beauty of Usdan’s wooded campus and recreational spaces, including its swimming pools and archery range, and to join Usdan's welcoming and inclusive community, while having fun, being active, and making new friends. 

Students have one period of swimming, one period of archery, and one period of general recreation, including activities and games such as cornhole, four-square, badminton, and more, in addition to an art station. Our Recreational Camp students also get a taste of Usdan’s Classic Program with one period of Art, taught by experienced art educators and professional artists, as well as a daily Festival Performance by professional and student artists to delight, surprise, and inspire them. Each group is guided through their days by one or two counselors.
