Our Outdoor Adventure course is always one of the most popular programs at camp!

Soccer is a staple of North Shore Day Camp’s athletic program.

Campers enjoy playing on our 9-hole state of the art, miniature golf course. In addition to having fun, campers also learn the fundamental skills of golf such as grip and stance, addressing the ball, swing and follow-through, putting, pitching, golf safety, proper use of clubs, rules of the game and golf etiquette.
