Who thrives here Ages 6–9

Stick Camp fits middle-elementary campers — old enough for skill-building to land, young enough that friend-group dynamics and counselor warmth still matter more than program rigor. Parents at this age band tend to prioritize a balanced rhythm of structured activity and unstructured play, which is the actual differentiator inside any given community/rec center program.

Frequently asked about Stick Camp

What ages does Stick Camp accept?
Stick Camp is open to children ages 6–9. Camps publish their own age cutoffs, and some run mixed-age groups internally; check the registration page for that summer's grouping if your child sits at a boundary.
How much does Stick Camp cost?
Stick Camp publishes $220/week for the standard session. Final cost depends on session length, sibling discounts, and whether extended care is added on.
What are Stick Camp's hours?
Stick Camp runs 9:30 a.m.-3 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 Stick Camp?
Stick Camp is operated by the local parks department. The operator type matters for tuition policy (refunds, financial aid eligibility) and for what kind of staff training pipeline the camp uses.
Does Stick Camp provide lunch?
Stick 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.
