Cali Camp 2013 Activities
New school fun + old school faves
30 Adventures, 1 Camp: How it Works
Cali Camp is a day camp that offers kids up to thirty mini-adventures. From a climbing wall to gymnastics, from skateboarding to archery, from swimming to a game called GaGa.
We’ve got outdoor sports and games, creative arts, action & adventure activities, connections to nature and much more.
Cali Camp offers complete scheduling flexibility. Our only requirement is that campers come for at least five days. Come to camp for a single, five-day, Monday-Friday session and check out all thirty activities or sign up for any daily combination - two, three or four days per week. Specialty camps are mandatory, Monday - Friday sessions.
Playful Sports & Chill-Out Games
There’s a sport for every camper and that’s why Cali Camp has so many. From hard court sports like basketball, to field games like soccer and softball, to racquet sports like tennis and pickleball, to the old world’s archery. Whether it’s an activity a camper already loves, or an opportunity to try and thrive at something new, sports for every age and experience level are part of each session. A cool-off in the pool is a daily stop for everyone.
Cali Camp also hosts a series of goofy and fun games, from the camp creation “Ga-ga” to foosball, gockey, capture the flag, run the bases backwards and more.
Freedom of Expression? The Creative Arts
There’s free to play and there’s free to express. Cali Camp’s summer light, soft breeze, and oaks provide an inspiring environment for kids. This year, Cali Camp means Arts & Crafts, Drama, Dance, Yoga for Kids and Music.
Each art is practiced with supportive counselors and taught by qualified specialists. At Cali Camp, success is in the doing, the inner expression and each kid’s connection to the outer world.
Climb, Tumble, Fly, Shred, Race
A skate ramp, mountain biking, go-karts, rock climbing, a ropes course bring kid-sized extreme sports to the canyon. Tailored down to appropriate sizes which means every camper gets a touch of the adventure.
Kids who want to fly can learn the art of the trapeze and other aerial sports, thanks to the specialized expertise of FOCUSfish, an organization that works with Los Angeles schools. Roll and tumble? Specialists help campers of all ages find the joy in gymnastics.
Join the Natural World
There are Cali Camp sports and then there are forays into the natural environment. A time for kids who are used to the stimuli of the city to slow down and experience the pace of the earth.
Horseback riding, time spent with barn animals like goats and chickens, and visits to the bamboo forest have always been camper favorites. But this year we’ve added outdoor living skills like organic gardening, composting, geocaching, animal husbandry, lashing skills, hiking and pioneer skills.
