Bakers' Academy exceeded my expectations!

My child enjoyed making around 15 recipes throughout the week in Bakers’ Academy, which exceeded my expectations! Nice touch for the camp to provide takeaway boxes to bring baked goods home.

Great variety of activities

They liked the fun crafts, including making the planetarium and the phases of the Moon using Oreo cookies. The variety of activities in Space camp, such as being able to play soccer, was appreciated. They also enjoyed the dessert (i.e. popsicles, ice cream) after lunch, and found the instructors were nice. Overall Crescent Camp has been a great experience for our sons. ... Show More

One-of-A-Kind Camps

Crescent Camps offer different, unique, interesting and in most cases "one-of-a-kind" camps. This is our 3rd year we've signed up for the camps and each time the kids leave with more confidence, new skills and wonderful memories to last a lifetime. Thanks Crescent Camps!

Best summer camp experience ever!

Thank you for providing my best summer camp experience I ever had. I loved all the instructors at robotics and the games I played at camp. I also loved the food there, especially the pizza. I also felt the instructors were very professional and friendly.

OUR KIDS review of Crescent Camps

our take

Many independent schools are fortunate to have beautiful grounds, modern and professionally equipped facilities and highly experienced faculty, and that’s particularly true at Crescent. Where many day camps offer robotics, they can’t, for example, also offer theatre arts out of a fully equipped theatre facility, or printmaking out of a fully equipped studio. Crescent can—and does—do all of that and more. There’s also an ease that comes with having it all in one place; while campers have the option of doing ultimate frisbee one week and arts the next, the location allows them and their parents to fall in to some longer-term routines in terms of daily transportation and schedules. (And the fact that lunch is included is, from the parental perspective at least, kind of thrilling.) The camp is close to public transportation as well as a wealth of multi-use green space, including play fields and the ravine that abuts the property. Home to a low-ropes course, the ravine also offers abundant opportunity for exploration and nature study. There are programs here that you won’t find anywhere else, such as Architectural Concepts and Design and Money Matters, a session presenting financial literacy concepts. The Discovery Camp allows fun opportunities for younger campers to explore athletics, arts, makerspace and nature, combining these themes with different activities each week. Most of the programs are led by Crescent faculty who have expertise in their area of athletics, arts, robotics and business. Instructors who are not Crescent faculty have extensive expertise in the program areas, previous camp leadership experience, and are often alumni of the school. Ultimately, there’s a lot to love, particularly for campers who are looking for programming that falls outside the typical day-camp fare.
