Our Summer Camps

Students Entering Grades 3-6 in Fall 2024

​The original PSLA summer camp features 4 weeks of camp, each with a different theme. It is everything you expect from a local outdoor camp: a wide variety of activities and meeting new friends while reconnecting with old ones. Counselors and Junior CITs work hard to ensure that every camper feels welcomed and a part of this PSLA family.

  • Campers will have endless fun playing new games, developing teamworking skills, and using their creativity!

  • This 9am-1pm camp (snack provided, lunchtime at 11:30am) is perfect for all interested in getting out of the house to spend some fun days out making new friends while reconnecting with old ones.

  • We believe the greatest gift of PSLA is the time away from the constant barrage of technology and ability to connect with like-minded peers while enjoying the natural world.

  • All profits from PSLA summer camps will be donated to Cherry Crest Elementary to give back and help promote leadership and create more opportunities for students to grow! For information on previous donations, go here.

  • *New for 2024* For incoming 7th-9th graders, I am offering a junior counselor-in-training (CIT) session which will teach them valuable skills in leadership, communication, and creativity all while having fun. More information here.
