Tenderfoot Camp

ARPD Programs follow all State and County Health protocols. 
 2024 SUMMER TENDERFOOT CAMP
A Camp Experience For Ages 3 Years to Pre-Kindergarten
 2024 Tenderfoot Camp
 Join us for an introductory day camp experience. We will meet at Lower Washington Park (near the Tennis Courts) and then walk to either Robert Crown Beach or up to Washington Park to begin our day. Camp experiences will include making crafts, storytelling, games and songs...all based on a weekly theme! Campers will also be designing their own camp shirts to take home. We'll hike to Crab Cove to look for crabs and other sea life that lives at the Cove.
