What's Different this Summer?

This summer, you will notice all of our camps are broken down into four categories: academic, athletic, specialty, and day.

Academic, athletic, and specialty camps are similar to the traditional UMS-Wright camps you know and love. These camps run Monday through Thursday, either taking place in the morning or the afternoon.

Day Camps are a full day experience, with drop-off starting as early as 7:30 and camp activities ending no later than 3:30. Each day camp has its own lead counselor, weekly themes to magnify the fun, and much more. Day Camps run Monday through Friday, providing a full week of fun for your camper. We offer four day camps: Beginners (K3), Climbers (K4-K5), Junior (1-2), and Senior (36).

Morning Camps: 8:30-11:30 Need childcare after 3:30?

Afternoon Camps: 12:30-3:30 No problem! We offer Extended Care: 3:30-5:30 Extended Care from 3:305:30 each week.

Day Camps: 7:30-3:30

Mix + Match Experience

We are thrilled to be able to provide campers with a customized mix and match experience! Campers can combine a morning camp with an afternoon camp to customize his or her experience!
