SOMAPY Day Camp


Maplewood, New Jersey

 

Our camps are jammed packed with creative play, sports, and activities. We're about team-work, curiosity, building self-confidence, and cultivating independence. We are committed to the development of our campers. We emphasize making friends, resolving conflicts, and working cooperatively with others.

Unplugging from technology and connecting with other campers enables us to interact effectively and more kindly with each other. Every day, groups rotate through weekly themes that explore new topics. Educational programs and instructive entertainers are featured each week.

Activities include organized team-building games, animation, nature/science activities, and mini-sport clinics like soccer, karate, nutrition, and basketball.
