Early Childhood Camp Shlenker

At Camp Shlenker, we are thrilled to introduce a fresh, flexible approach to Early Childhood Camp this year, designed to fit seamlessly into your family’s summer plans. Our exciting updates make it easier than ever for your child to enjoy a summer of fun, exploration, and enrichment tailored to your family’s needs.

Why the Changes?
We know that flexibility is essential for families, so we’ve designed a camp experience that adapts to your schedule while providing engaging, high-quality programming. With our new options, you can customize your child’s summer experience and ensure they get the most out of their time at Camp Shlenker.

What’s New?
Here’s how we’re making Camp Shlenker more dynamic and family-friendly:

• Themed Weeks: Each week of camp will feature an exciting new theme, offering fresh activities, games, and projects to keep campers engaged and inspired.
   
• Custom Scheduling: Choose the specific weeks you’d like your child to attend, making it easy to plan around your summer schedule.
   
• Flexible Hours:
   
  • Half-Day Option: A regular camp day from 8:45 AM to 12:30 PM, perfect for younger campers or families who prefer shorter days.
     
  • Full-Day Option: Extend the fun with a full camp day from 8:45 AM to 3:15 PM.
     
  • Extended Day Option: Need extra coverage? Add extended hours from Monday to Thursday until 5:30 PM.
