Item Description

Lincoln Park, Lakeview and West Loop

Instead of a rigid structure, we give our campers choice. Instead of teaching kids the typical way, we give them tools and gentle guidance to help them become autodidacts. The difference is subtle–and it’s profound.

At Steve & Kate’s, campers step into a world packed with possibilities: for experiencing new sensations, for expressing themselves, for exploring their passions and potential. The results are unexpected and they’re unexpectedly rich. One camper dives deep into stop-motion animation. Another discovers a passion for dance. Or chess. A camper becomes engrossed in making the perfect bread. Or developing Leo Messi-like touch on the soccer pitch. These discoveries are all the more exhilarating because campers make them for themselves. This is a world liberated from adult judgments and expectations, and campers flourish in it.

After 35 years, we’re still 100 percent obsessed with making each edition of Steve & Kate’s freer, fresher and more effective at inspiring campers to zero in on what makes them truly happy.

There’s nothing exciting about anything that comes in a brown paper bag. That’s why we include five-course meals with menus created by a few chef friends that you may have seen on the tube. Yes, lunch is included in the camp fee—snacks too. Each day we offer a feast featured from a different part of the world—Italian, Mexican, Asian, American, and French. Some items are a little out there to broaden kids’ palates, while others are classics to provide a safety net. We want kids to acquire a craving for healthier foods and develop a taste for different cultures.
