Make this summer one of lasting memories for your child by enrolling in our Wildcat Kids Camp. Wildcat Kids is a traditional summer camp for children entering grades 1-6 in the fall. Each exciting week is packed with games, activities and field trips that follow the theme of the week. A typical week may include arts & crafts, outdoor adventure activities, indoor rock climbing, swimming, ice skating and special guest presenters. NMU is the perfect setting for summer camp, featuring a centrally located base site at the PEIF for camp and indoor and outdoor spaces to accommodate a wide range of activities.
Your child’s camp experience is our #1 priority, so our focus is on teaching new skills, promoting teamwork, encouraging sportsmanship and making sure that we understand and recognize the unique abilities and interests of your child. Join us all week long or pick a day or two that best fits your busy schedule. Full days are 6:45 a.m.-5:30 p.m. Programmed activity time is 9 a.m.-4 p.m. Early morning and late afternoon times will be used as kids’ choice time.
