Item Description

Dates vary through the first three weeks of July.
Details are as follows:

Waldorf Summer Adventure Camp
Half & Full Day

Rising 2nd through 6th Grades

Can't choose one particular activity? With this all-day camp, you don't have to!  Children will have a variety of activities in this camp to keep them excited and engaged. There are no "Dog-Days of summer" here as they will be filled with fun science activities, gardening, music, off campus day-trips and lots of unique games and free play.

Beautiful Local Biking
Full Day

Rising 6th & Up

Students will explore the local bike ways of the DC area.  Our Outdoor Education teacher, Geoff Baker, will help you explore Rock Creek, The Mall and Tidal Basin, Arlington Cemetery (and see the changing of the guard of the unknown soldier), Roosevelt Island, and along the Potomac towards Mount Vernon.  Students will look at the map to figure out distances and other sights along the way, including the best ice cream parlor available on that particular route!  Come see DC on your very own spokes (bicycles are not provided).
