ages 3 to rising 6th grade Hammond’s Hawk Ridge Camp is designed to provide campers with fun, age-appropriate activities every day, all summer. Campers are divided into three age groups: 3-4 years-old, rising 5K–1st grades, 2nd–6th grades. Each week includes field trips and field studies as well as music, theater, art, sports, outdoor adventures, and much more!
