Based in the air-conditioned Birthday Cottages of the Amusement Park, Kidcam Campers are assigned a cottage based on their age group, and their weekly activities promote fun, fitness, friendship and creativity. Campers celebrate a different theme each week, while incorporating a curriculum filled with sports, creative arts, STEM, team building games, life skills, onsite trips, talent shows, swimming and water play, along with 50 years of memorable Kidcam traditions.
Each week does offer a weekly them with different activites/games/camp experiences in the categories listed above, and Campers at City Park also enjoy Storyland, the Great Lawn, playground areas, Amusement Park rides at scheduled times throughout the week, as well as Sport Fields/Slip N Slides.

Accreditation
Kidcam Camps is proud to be Accredited by the American Camp Association. ACA Accreditation means that your child’s camp cares enough to undergo a thorough (up to 300 standards) review of its operation every year — from staff qualifications and training to emergency management. ACA collaborates with experts from the American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Red Cross, and other youth-serving agencies to assure that current practices at your child’s camp reflect the most up-to-date, research-based standards in camp operation. Camps and ACA form a partnership that promotes growth and fun in an environment committed to safety. ACA accreditation assures families that camps have made the commitment to a safe, nurturing environment for their children. ACA standards are recognized by courts of law and government regulators as the standards of the camp community.
