Summer Day Camp

Why Send Kids To Camp?

 Day Camp is an opportunity for kids (age 5-14) to get used to the idea of camp, but still, get to go home each night to sleep in their beds.  There are many enriching activities that day campers get to participate in that makes the camp experience so much better than attending a daycare.

For example, we group campers of the same age and assign them to counselors trained in working with kids of that specific age group. Counselors ensure every camper has a meaningful experience by engaging them in a variety of activities and encouraging them to try new ones.  


Day camp is about learning to work together with others, learning new skills, and learning about yourself. Your day camper will come home with greater confidence, new friends, and perhaps a new appreciation of who they are and what they are capable of achieving.


Day camp gives campers these opportunities in smaller doses.  When they (and you) are ready, overnight camp is available! 

Camper Safety

Camper safety is our number one priority!

The American Camp Association is the leading authority in youth development, and we use their standards to guide our decision-making process in all aspects of camp.  These strict guidelines ensure a safe and fun summer for campers, staff, and camper families. 


  • Our staff is trained and certified in every activity we offer before campers arrive.
  • Staff is also First Aid, and CPR certified.   
  • A Camp Health Aide will attend to any medical needs that arise and administer medications that you send. 
  • We will ensure that your child stays hydrated and fed throughout the day.
  • Also, we have a child protection plan in place to ensure that Camp RIO is a healthy, safe place for your child to thrive!  
  • A fence secures our entire camp property with two entrance gates kept locked and monitored with security cameras at all times. 
  • We have rigorous policies on who we allow into the campgrounds. Approved visitors must also report to the main office for a background screening. 
  • Screened visitors are accompanied by a staff member at all times. 
  • Campers are never left unsupervised, and counselors follow the rule of 3: Counselors and campers must always travel in a group of 3. 
  • Camper updates are provided to parents through the Bunk1  app. This is a great way to write emails and see photos of your kids at camp.
  • We want the safest camp experience for your child and welcome your input or suggestions on our policies.
