Steve & Kate's Camp - NATIONAL
At our camp, exhilaration is the norm—because kids call the shots! Since 1980, we’ve let campers design their days, choosing exactly how they want to build, create, play, and explore. This freedom fuels confidence, creativity, and independence like nothing else. And parents? They love the freedom, too! Choose any number of days or snag a Summer Pass for unlimited fun, with flexible drop-off and pickup (8 a.m.–6 p.m.), tasty included meals, and automatic refunds for unused days. It’s the ultimate blend of convenience and adventure—where kids thrive and families win all summer long.
