Skidmore College offers a variety of programs for children of all ages during the summer months.
Plans for summer programs will be detailed on individual camp websites in the spring. Skidmore’s summer plans will be adapted to adhere to the most current local, state and national health and safety requirements.
Camp Northwoods
Camp Northwoods, Skidmore's day camp for children entering grades 1-8, offers an exciting program
of sports, cultural arts, nature study and relaxed play. Our goal is to provide a
variety of fun activities that happily challenge the imagination, intellect, and body.
The camp's home base is Falstaff's Pavilion on the Skidmore College campus and a qualified
staff leads daily enrichment activities, arts and crafts, ceramics, games, hiking
and visits by special guests.
Sports Camps
Skidmore College also offers a wide array of Sports Camps from June through August for children of all ages. Choose from baseball, basketball, field hockey, ice hockey, lacrosse, soccer, swimming, and volleyball. Children learn the concept of teamwork while acquiring the necessary skills for the sport of their choice.
Adults, novice or experienced, can participate in a rowing program offered throughout the spring, summer and fall at the Boat House located on beautiful Fish Creek. All other programs are held on the Skidmore Campus at the Sports and Recreation Center and/or the adjacent fields.
