Summer History Camp
Our Summer History Camp is for campers going into Second through Seventh Grades. Join us for a different age group and theme each week.
New this year are extended hours. Camp hours are 7:30am-5:30pm each day. Structured camp activities are from 9:00am-3:00pm with free play before and after camp. We don't expect our campers to be at camp for the entire time but to make it easier on parents our extended hours will help with drop off and pick up times. Also new is Victorian Science Camp. Activities for Victorian Science Camp will include learning about the Scientific method and will have lots of hands on 19th Century Science activities.
Camp runs in June and July. Two snacks are provided but campers need to bring their own lunch, water bottle and sunscreen. Registration is due the Friday before your camp week begins. If you have questions email: mahaffie@olatheks.org or call 913.971.5111. Click the program theme below to register.
