2020 Summer Camps

Update

Click HERE for an update on Cascade Mountain School 2020 summer camps in response to the unfolding coronavirus (COVID-19) crisis.

At-Home Adventure Camps

(A-HA!)

The objectives of our A-HA! camps are:
  • to provide some fun and engaging activities for campers that will provide some structure in the day (and a break for parents / caregivers).
  • to create an opportunity to visit with other kids during this period when many of us are more isolated in our homes.
  • to inspire kids to get outside and explore the natural world
At-Home Adventures (A-HA!) will allow us to bring camp right to your home. Campers will receive a themed activity kit coupled with on-line instruction and project sharing with our expert instructors and other campers.

Monday - Thursday

10am - 3pm, daily

Cost: $90 per family*

* 1 additional sibling per family is allowed free of charge

A typical camp day will look like:
  • 10 AM – 10:45 AM:  Online Zoom Meetup with other campers and instructors for games and activities (length of this meetup will vary per camp)
  • 11 AM – 2 PM:         Independent project / activity time
  •  2 PM – 3 PM:         Online Zoom Meetup to reconnect with other campers and share projects  (length of this meetup will vary per camp)
