Day Camp – Palisades
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 daily instructional swim with goals that are kid-specific and catered to your camper’s swim level. Your child will be carefully supervised at all times by their small group swim instructor, lifeguards, and counselors with a 3:1 child-to-staff ratio in the pool. Swim progress reports will be sent home weekly so you can stay up to date on your camper’s progress
Weekly Themes
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!
