Location: School 1, 158 Park Slope

Special Features: Activity Selection:  Campers will be eligible to select two programs per week (i.e. soccer & baseball) listed on the camp application.  They will learn those activities throughout the week by the means of drills, skills instruction, lead-up games and activities.  Activity enrollment is limited for each sport/art offered each session; therefore, two (2) alternate choices must be made just in case your first choices are full. You must make separate selections for each session you are attending.  It is advised that campers do not select the same activities each week if they are attending multiple sessions of camp.  The same lessons & skills will be taught each session in each activity, so for your child’s greatest enjoyment, please vary their activity selection from session to session.  All campers, boys & girls are encouraged to try all the various sports.  In addition to the two programs they select, all campers will have a Rec. Sports session each day.  Periodic trips to Athenia Steel Recreation Complex for outdoor activities may occur.

Equipment & Supplies:  Sneakers are required for all sports activities.  Individuals signed up for baseball must bring their own mitt.
