Who thrives here Ages 12–16

Fly Fishing Camp serves high-school campers, which means the program is competing against summer jobs, college visits, internships, and residential overnight options. The case for a day camp at this age is usually a CIT (counselor-in-training) track, deep specialization in community/rec center, or a portfolio item parents and kids both value. Programs that don't articulate one of those three usually lose this age band by 9th grade.

Frequently asked about Fly Fishing Camp

What ages does Fly Fishing Camp accept?

How much does Fly Fishing Camp cost?
Fly Fishing Camp publishes $299/week for the standard session. Final cost depends on session length, sibling discounts, and whether extended care is added on.
What are Fly Fishing Camp's hours?
Fly Fishing Camp runs 8 a.m.-2 p.m.. If those hours don't quite cover your work day, check whether extended care or early drop-off is offered separately.
Who runs Fly Fishing Camp?

Does Fly Fishing Camp provide lunch?
Fly Fishing Camp does not include lunch — campers bring their own. Most day camps without provided lunch are nut-free or nut-aware, so check the allergy policy before packing. Frozen water bottles double as ice packs and drinks; insulated lunch boxes hold below 40°F for about four hours.
