We welcome you to our all-inclusive GirlSummer Day Program! Each session is two weeks in length. The GirlSummer day program allows each girl the opportunity to explore, play, and learn on our vibrant campus. Campers will provide elective preferences that match their interests and goals that guide the schedule-making process. Count on your camper trying something new, which adds to the fun and expansive spirit of the GirlSummer program!

We are thrilled by the vision of our campus enlivened by the laughter and joy of our GirlSummer community. We look forward to seeing you this summer!
