WHO WE ARE
Camp Embark is dedicated to providing an exclusive and safe space where children can develop holistically during school breaks. We design unforgettable experiences that inspire future leaders through play, exploration, and learning. With a combination of educational, recreational, and sports activities, at Camp Embark, children not only have fun; they acquire practical skills in areas such as entrepreneurship, finance, and technology, equipping them with valuable tools for the future.
More than just a camp, we are a community that supports children in their physical, emotional, and social development, helping them maintain a healthy balance away from excessive screen time. We aim to prevent issues like sedentary behavior and childhood loneliness, fostering an environment where children feel valued, safe, and motivated to explore the world.
In a context of growing concern for safety and mental health, Camp Embark is a positive and enriching alternative. Here, children can reconnect with their surroundings, form meaningful bonds, and benefit from programs focused on their emotional and personal well-being, providing parents with peace of mind knowing their children are in good hands.
CAMP PHILOSOPHY
At Camp Embark, we believe that the holistic development of children is essential to prepare them for a successful future. Our philosophy centers around three key pillars: learning, exploration, and community.
Learning Through Play: We promote an environment where children can learn while having fun. We believe that play is a powerful tool that stimulates curiosity and creativity, allowing children to acquire practical skills in areas such as entrepreneurship, finance, and technology.
Personal Exploration: We encourage individual exploration and self-expression, providing each child with the opportunity to discover their unique passions and talents. Our programs are designed to inspire independence and confidence, helping children become leaders in their own lives.
Inclusive Community: Camp Embark is a space where every child feels valued and accepted. We believe in the importance of building meaningful relationships and collaboration among campers, their families, and our team. Together, we form a community that supports the emotional and social growth of each child.
Our philosophy is driven by the desire to offer unforgettable experiences that not only impact children's lives but also provide peace of mind to parents, knowing their children are in a safe, stimulating, and enriching environment.
We begin our days at 9:00 am and end at 4:00 pm. We break up the hours between meals with activities, rest period, more activities, and then lastly our special camp-wide event. We have fun every day.
60-80% of our time is spent outdoors. We offer four rotations for our core programs: Arts, Sports, Life, and STEM. We reserve the 5th period for our camp-wide activities that create unforgettable memories.
Campers select a workshop at the start of each season to develop a skill. Skill-based electives are a vital component of our program, and they are taught by EXPERTS who are qualified to provide the best instruction.
We’re a nut-free camp! Our catered lunch is supplied by a local restaurant. Meals change daily to ensure variety. Vegetarian and vegan options are also available upon request.
Our field trips take place on the second and third week of a season. The first week of a season, campers and counselors are still getting to know each other. The 2nd and 3rd week of the season, we visit places that inspire adventure, curiosity and that our campers would enjoy.
