  In its 94th year, the US Boys’ Day Camp is proving that good things do last! The camp prides itself in being a safe place where we will teach your son teamwork, sportsmanship, athletic and non-athletic skills, and pride in a job well done. We have a strong tradition in combining fun activities with a truly educational experience. A big part of our success comes because we DO limit group size, and we maintain a 6-to-1 camper-to-staff ratio! We know boys, and we create an environment where they thrive.
  
  Campers swim twice each day (instructional and free swim). Tennis instruction is included in the older groups’ programs. Younger groups have a focus on nature and the outdoors. New this year, boys in the 3rd grade and up will be building and launching rockets! Field trips focus on educational as well as recreational opportunities. The extensive indoor and outdoor facilities of the Shaker campus provide the primary setting for these exciting, challenging, and fun pursuits.  Camp leaders are experienced teachers who are assisted by college and high school counselors. Counselors are chosen due to their accomplishments as students and leaders within their own schools, and many are former campers at the Day Camp who have chosen to give back to the program they loved as a child.
  
  The Boys’ Day Camp is a full six-week program. Because of the limit in group sizes, be sure to register early for this popular camp.

  
  Extended Day options (before and after camp) and shuttle bus services are available. Campers bring their own bagged lunch and drinks.
