While many Denver-area summer camps are already near capacity, opportunities abound at Camp DCL! Douglas County Libraries (DCL) is offering a variety of enriching camps all summer, June 1-July 31, at six locations—Castle Pines, Castle Rock, Highlands Ranch, Lone Tree, Parker, and Roxborough. Registration for the weeklong camps is open at DCL.org/camp-dcl.
The library’s summer camps give kids ages 5-12 rich learning experiences through a variety of hands-on activities. Campers can explore cooking and baking, coding and programming, experiments in science, art through a variety of mediums, and LEGO building adventures. They’ll not only have a great time, but they’ll also learn new skills, share experiences with new friends, gain confidence, and more!
Parents have the flexibility to choose from half-day camps or full-day camps (at a 10% discount) at select DCL locations. Half-day camps are offered in morning and afternoon sessions, and full-day camps take place from 9 a.m.-4 p.m. All camps are facilitated by subject matter experts, and are supported by trained DCL staff and volunteers.
“We’re really proud of the options we offer parents, from the variety of camp subjects and convenient locations to the staff/counselor-to-campers ratio,” said DCL Special Events Coordinator Kristen Kallio. “We want every camper to have a great experience while learning new skills and also having fun.”
While Camp DCL is budget-friendly for families, scholarships may be available from the Douglas County Libraries Foundation for qualified campers.
