Co-Ed Day Camp

Co-ed Day Camp is full of adventures everyday and something new to do every week!

2025 REGISTRATION OPENS ON MONDAY, DECEMBER 9TH AT 6PM EST

 


Imagine the perfect day: You wake up, pack your lunch, grab your bathing suit and head out the door. Smiling counselors meet you at the front gate of Camp, ready to sing songs, play wacky sports, and laugh along with you all day long. We spend the morning digging for dinosaur bones or fighting off dragons. After lunch, we splash in the lake, paddle in our canoes, and cheer for our friends in archery. When you wave goodbye at the end of the day, you aren’t sad at all. That’s because you get to do it again TOMORROW! Sound perfect? It’s just another day at Camp Newaygo’s Day Camp.

We are excited to offer our Co-ed Day Camp to campers entering first through seventh grades. Our camp features unique, educational, and interactive programs where kids have the opportunity to grow into their best selves. Day campers spend their days participating in  activities like archery, wilderness hikes, team building challenges, fishing, arts and crafts, and much more! Every Thursday will be a planned adventure day ranging from a canoe trip to Camp’s own private island to top secret missions. Programming takes places among 104 acres of beautiful undeveloped oak forest, natural wetlands, and an expansive private waterfront. During the week your child will be cared for, encouraged, and mentored by our outstanding camp counselors. We look forward to providing your child with positive experiences that will last a lifetime!

Summer 2025 will feature a full 9 weeks of summer themes along with a week of Spanish Immersion Day Camp the week of August 11th-15th.  Learn more HERE!
