Camp Programs

Overview

Ask anyone who attended camp as a child, and a smile will quickly appear as they remember the idyllic days of fun in the sun, summer friendships that span the years, and the joy of camp rituals and traditions. Try new things, meet kids outside of your neighborhood, connect with caring adults, and create future memories with your new summer tradition at SMS.

Lower Camp

Ages 4 - 6

The Lower Camp summer experience is designed specifically for our youngest campers. We provide Lower Campers with the opportunity to explore, discover, and play—all while engaging in new and favorite activities in a safe and fun camp environment.

Middle Camp

Ages 7 - 9

Our Middle Camp summer program provides structure as well as variety for campers who are discovering their independence. A variety of activities each day allow Middle Campers to build confidence, have fun, and develop new friendships. Structured opportunities for choice and decision-making allows them to feel safe and confident in a close-knit community.

Upper & Senior Camp

Ages 10 - 14

Older campers ages 10 – 14 will be assigned to our Upper and Senior Camp groups. These summer programs focus on giving campers a balance of age-appropriate activities and the opportunity to socialize in a supportive and engaging environment. Upper and Senior Campers enjoy a large selection of activities and the freedom of choice to make camp their own. Upper and Senior Campers will register and be placed in separate groups, but may combine groups for some activities each day.

Enrichment Camps

Ages 6 - 14

Looking to try something new, or to spend some extra time exploring an old favorite? Dive into sports such as soccer, recreational basketball, or tennis; immerse yourself in your favorite hobbies; discover a future career; or try something totally new and different. We’ve got an exciting mix of options to enrich your day with focused fun followed by a variety of traditional camp activities.

Specialty Sports Camp

ONE-WEEK, FULL-DAY BASKETBALL PROGRAMS

AGES 10 – 15

Our Specialty Sports Basketball Camp is a more focused program that will engage campers in skill development, technique and awareness, strategic play, ball handling, and regular intra-squad scrimmages. This full-day, one-week program is ideal for players looking to level up their game!

CIT Leadership Program

AGES 15 - 16

Spend your summer making strides towards your future! Our CIT Leadership program combines the components of an in-depth leadership workshop with the practical skills you’ll need for working at camp, and every segment of the program is rooted in support from our experienced directors and mentors. Spend the first part of the program building a team, reflecting on your goals, and exploring what it means to be a “leader.” From there, try your hand at supporting a camp group, activity specialist, or enrichment teacher as they create the meaningful magic for our younger campers. 

At the end of the CIT Leadership program, you’ll be eligible to apply for a staff position during Session 5 or future summers.

Please contact us anytime to schedule a tour of camp spaces with one of our Directors.

Though St. Mark’s is a residential high school during the school year, we invite visitors to put on their “camp goggles” as we tour our camp spaces and get a feel for St. Mark’s campus. See where your camper will check-in with their group each morning, eat lunch, play games, and engage in various activities.
