Submit an application for your child to join us for a week of fun and adventure, steeped in Irish culture, at our very own Irish American Community Center Day Camp!
Camp directors are club members with extensive experience in the field of education. The program will incorporate Irish sports, drama, music, crafts, and stories into a comprehensive, safe and enjoyable schedule of camp activities. Last year over forty young campers danced, sang, spoke Gaelic, baked scones, lived like a Celt, played Irish football and did so much more. Camp hours will be from 9:00 am until 3:00 pm with before and after care available. We are offering this exciting opportunity at a reasonable cost to children of club members ages four to thirteen. Enrollment is limited to sixty campers, so act fast!
