special events to give your child an exciting and varied camp experience.
Now in our 19th summer, the Downtown Day Camp is simply the most enjoyable summer experience available - and all in a nearby, safe, caring environment. Our returning camp director, Dr. Russ Schulman, has worked with children in downtown Manhattan for the last two decades. Our new Downtown Community Center will be open for camp again this summer! With its new swimming pool, art rooms, multi-media lab, dance studio, small gym, theater, classrooms and more, the Downtown Community Center will provide Downtown Day Camp with a whole new level of age-appropriate activities. These activities will be complimented by our returning field and gym sports, karate, musical performances, pier barbecues, camp carnival and other special events.

supervised by one of our Team Leaders. Team Leaders are
experienced teachers or child-care professionals. Any and all needs that your child has may be personally addressed and
managed by one of these extremely competent and experienced professionals. This
is a level of supervision that clearly expresses our commitment to the personal
needs of your child. Our head counselors are all college students or graduates.

use high achieving and motivated high school students as assistants. In
addition, we
have a full-time registered nurse on duty.

working parents and for children who want an extra week of fun. Our camp day is
from 9 to 5, but we offer early and late hours as
