Welcome to our Summer Program Experience
Summer Adventure 2013
Our Summer Program offers fun-filled summer activities
for ages 2 – 12 yrs. old!
During the summer, children jump into action, participating in exciting sports
programs, exploring nature, becoming involved in performing and creative
arts, playing a part in group activities, and attending special events.
Our children have the opportunity to expand their horizons during the
summer, embarking on new adventures, and having fun! Our exceptional
program and dedicated staff create an environment that forges lifelong
friendships among our campers. We create a summer experience that is
unforgettable!
It all starts with our outstanding counselors!
A program is only as good as its staff, and we are extremely proud of ours.
Talent, creativity, love of children, leadership and devotion make our
counselors the heart and soul of the program. Bethesda Country Day
counselors are doing exactly what they enjoy most: spending a summer
inspiring campers to explore, reach for new heights, and expand their
horizons.
