The Pathfinder School: Traverse City Community School

Summer Programs

Summer Camp 2012, Music Programs and MORE!

The Pathfinder Schools offers a variety of summer programs taking advantage of our beautiful 22 acre campus and wonderful teaching staff between June and August.  Programs are open to all students, regardless of whether they attend The Pathfinder School during the school year.  With the popularity of our Summer Camp in particular, we recommend registering as early as possible. 

(Summer Camp 2012 registration will be posted soon!)

 

SUMMER DAY CAMP:
Our Summer Day Camp, the staple of our summer offerings, engages children in a developmentally appropriate program with a strong emphasis on the outdoors. Campers are split into three age groups (4-5yrs, 6-8yrs and 9-12yrs) that pursue a different theme each of the six weeks of camp.  In 2012, campers will explore some of the following topics:

Cool Bug Stuff (ages 4-5)
You'll never know what you'll find when you go on an insect safari.

Legend of Robin Hood (ages 6-8)
Join Robin Hood for an adventure in archery and explore life in the WOODS!

GEOCACHING (ages 9-12)
Hide and seek treasure hunting using GPS technology on a unique orienteering journey!

...and that's just the beginning. The 2012 Summer Camp Brochure will be available via our website soon! Keep checking back for details!

"I feel free to call upon the faculty at our school anytime - weekday or weekend, to voice a concern, seek advice, raise a classroom issue or share an anecdotal story of accomplishment. It’s like having a competent group of allies to assist in the daily challenge that raising children with character poses."
