Give your little one a first look at what Camp Albany is all about. This early-childhood camp is designed for children to attend on their own, with staff guiding and supporting them throughout the day. Campers will build confidence as they explore new ways to play, create, and interact with their peers through hands-on experiences. From sensory play to creative projects, kids will dive into the messy, joyful fun of camp. A perfect way to spark excitement for future summer camp adventures! Please send your child with a water bottle. Snack is provided once daily. Children must be potty-trained to attend.
