Overview
Slovenski Camps offer a traditional summer camp experience rooted in liberal arts traditions. The camp emphasizes a screen-free environment where kids engage in classic activities like swimming, dodgeball, and capture the flag, alongside learning practical skills in teamwork and resilience. The program encourages in-person conversation and exposure to the arts, including classic literature, music, and poetry. Each evening features a campfire with stories and songs that reinforce values of self-reliance and community.
We offer multiple camp programs including dodgeball, cross country running, SAT prep, swimming, robotics, and strength & conditioning. The whole camp is together for much of the day – dining, free times, evening activity, and campfire – but separates into programs for the morning and afternoon sessions.
