To help kids stay active and make the most of their summer vacation, Camp Liberty offers 11 weeks of summer camp. Members and nonmembers may join us for fun-filled days! Each day brings new activities, new discoveries, and new opportunities for fun. Parents appreciate it and kids of all ages love the chance to play and learn in our amazing facility.
Monkey Play is just downright fun! After all, your child will get to charge like a cheetah, leap like a lemur and romp like a rhino. During this 45-minute class they’ll use their entire musculoskeletal and cardiovascular system, challenge and improve both gross and fine motor skills, and enhance their eye-hand coordination. Monkey Play is a lively adventure rich in fun, physical and imaginative activities!
