Cathedral Heights, NW D.C.
St. Albans School & National Cathedral School
We are proud to return to the St. Albans & the National Cathedral School for another summer to help campers tap into the power of play to discover their gifts, explore new interests and make the most of every day. Last year, we continued to implement new safety protocols that allowed us to run a safe and fun camp for everyone. We are excited to bring that same focus on safety and love of summer back in 2023.
NOTE: During the weeks of July 31st and August 7th, the Cathedral Heights (St. Albans) pool will be under construction and we are not permitted to use it. We apologize for the impact to our curriculum.
Please see here for more information on our Summer 2023 offerings at this location:
