The Discovery Day Camp Junior Program, for children going into kindergarten or CH2/3 (must be 4 years of age while attending camp), provides a gentle introduction to the camp experience, emphasizing creativity and socialization through arts and crafts, imaginative play, and age-appropriate outdoor activities.
