GJK Summer Camp
                   A Big Adventure with a Small Camp Feel
            GJK provides a safe, nurturing and fun environment for our campers.
 We focus our daily activities on the great outdoors and spend as much of the day as possible
                                 enjoying the summer weather.
              GJK camp is eight weeks and runs from June 21st -August 13th.
                                    There is no camp July 5th.
Buccaneers (Age 2)
This camp program is designed for children who are ready for independent play. Campers
enjoy art, music, sensory play, outdoor play, and much more! We staff the Buccaneers with
many counselors and Junior Counselors, knowing that this is the first separation experience for
many children.
 To help foster a successful separation experience, we run a slightly modified schedule for the 1st week.
                                  Specifically, please note the following:
                        • We end at 10:30 on the Monday and Tuesday of the 1st week.
                        • Extended day class does not begin until the 2nd week of camp.
      •   Parents may be asked to remain on site for the first few sessions to assist with the separation process.
The Buccaneers meet:
    • Monday/Wednesday – 9:15am-10:45am
    • Tuesday/Thursday – 9:15am-10:45am
    • Families may sign up for both options
    • Extended Day is available

Explorers (Age 3)
Three-year-old campers fill their camp day with fun and adventure! Sprinkler play, outdoor
games, craft projects, cooking projects, and short walking field trips will keep your camper
smiling. The Explorers come to camp four days a week. Children bring a sack lunch for this
adventure.
The Explorers meet:
    • Monday-Thursday – 9:00am-12:00pm
    • Extended Day is available pending COVID-19 restrictions and guidelines.
Pirates (Age 4)
Four-year-old campers will love this five-day a week camp program. Sports, craft projects,
water play, and more – all of the excitement you remember from your summer camp days!
Each week, children participate in a variety of activities based on a “summer” theme. Field trips
include beach days at Glencoe Beach, and splash pad outings at Highland Park Aquatics Center,
as well as fun-filled outings in and around Glencoe! *DUE to COVID-19 Field trips for the 2020
summer camp may be canceled.
The Pirates meet Monday-Friday – 9:00am-1:00p
