What to Bring

  • All campers should wear comfortable clothing and tennis shoes.
  • Half-day campers should just bring a snack and a water bottle.
  • For full-day camp, we suggest one packed lunch, two snacks, and a water bottle.

As Wake County has many year-round schools, we offer day camps every week of the year. We also offer before- and after-care options for those parents that need a little extra time.
