Day Camp – Oakton
Overview
Get ready for a great summer! This retro-style camp has something for everyone, including art, music, sports, moon bounce and STEM. Games and activities revolve around the week’s theme, allowing campers to flex their imaginations as they make their own terrariums, plant a seed, and create magical potions. Campers work together to help Headfirst’s mascot, Gomer, solve a problem over the course of the week, challenging them to think creatively and brainstorm solutions. Follow along on your camper’s adventure with daily photos and updates on our camp blog!

Swim
This camp includes water play! Water play is a fun way for campers to cool off in the middle of the day. The water play activity will vary throughout the week, but will always be a fun and active way for campers to cool down from the summer heat.
Weekly Themes
Reptilian Researchers
Beat the heat of summer with some of the most amazing cold-blooded creatures to ever roam Earth! Although the dinosaurs have long been extinct, their descendants still have managed to slither, crawl and creep their way to almost every continent… and in some very unlikely creatures! Come sun your scales as we learn about some radical reptiles and awe-inspiring amphibians and their ancestors who used to rule the Earth. Be prepared for a week of epic (and prehistoric) proportions!
Operation: Save Headfirstazon!
Through the tangles of vines and thick canopies of trees is where the incredible jungle of Headfirstazon breathes! Campers will discover the amazing creatures that live camouflaged under rocks, high in tree branches, and in the rushing rivers of this incredible habitat. But, something mysterious is happening – the creatures of Headfirstazon are disappearing! Campers’ resiliency will be put to the test as they work to solve this mesmerizing mystery!
Atlantis Adventure
Adventure awaits! Buried somewhere deep in the Atlantic Ocean Atlantis is out there ready to be discovered… or so the legend says. Shrouded in mystery and magic, come dive deep within yourself AND the ocean for what is sure to be a treasurable experience. Just watch out for the Bermuda Triangle!
Imagination Station for Real Life
Campers will help their favorite Bluey characters not only have a deeper understanding of setting and achieving goals but also a sense of accomplishment and friendship. And they’ll do all this through creative play, collaboration, teamwork and plain old fun. Join us for a week of laughter, learning, and goal-getting!
Say Aloha to Adventure
Unleash your inner traveler! These campers will be visiting Polynesia this week, an ideal location for exploring Geography, geology and ocean conservation. In fact, our campers will be travelling from island to island advocating for a cleaner environment and tackling projects such as watercolor volcanic blow art, boat building, study of the rock cycle, and how to properly use a compass. Pack your bags for a week of fun, as we say Aloha to the beautiful South Pacific!
Green Thumbs Galore
Calling all green thumbs! Campers will explore farm to table when they learn Gomer wants to grow a garden. However, gardening isn’t just planting seeds and watering. Join us to find out if we can bounce back from adversity to create the garden of our dreams!
Our State Fair
State Fairs are so much more than fried food and Ferris Wheels! They bring to life the unique characteristics of each state. You’re invited to join Headfirst as we take a trip to state fairs around the country where you will enjoy delicious state fair food, learn about animals, and practice your game playing skills, all while enjoying the sites and sounds of a State Fair!
Adventure in the Woodlands
Lions, badgers, and bears, OH MY! Let’s go on a nature hunt through the woodlands to see what animals and plants we can find. Don’t forget your binoculars!
Mythical Creatures and Magical Beings
During this magical week at Headfirst, campers will explore the mysterious creatures that have echoed throughout legends for thousands of years. Will Headfirst Campers be able to save these mysterious creatures so they don’t become ”mythological”? Get ready for an adventure of a lifetime that just might go up in flames!
Skipping to Our Own Beat
Melodies and harmonies will keep us busy this week as we explore the instrument families. We need to find the perfect instrument for Gomer to play in the Gomerian Orchestra! Come and express yourself as we skip to our own beat!
