Camp Descriptions

Come on down and put your imagination to work! Small camper/instructor ratio of 6:1. All supplies included in fee. A short playground/snack break is scheduled each day. Due to limited space, please sign up for only one session.

Wakeman has introduced photography into its summer camp program. Members will learn tips to improve picture taking, study the history of photography, and experiment with different types of cameras. Members will go on two field trips during the week. Members are required to bring their own digital camera and connectors.

This is a hands-on science program for members in 3rd-5th grade. This program is to help kids become more engaged in the wonders of science. Kids will have fun conducting gooey, bubbly, and fizzing experiments, learn about meat-eating plants, make their own volcanoes and discover the universe! We will take two field trips during the week to the Fairfield Audubon Center and the Norwalk Maritime Center.

This combination Baseball and Basketball Camp will focus on fundamental skill development in a fun environment led by Fairfield Prep Basketball coach and Fairfield Legion Baseball coach Rich Lee. Campers will learn to apply those skills in game situations for both sports. They will enjoy some fun contests and learn the proper mindset for young athletes to prepare themselves for playing multiple sports. This is a great opportunity for members to improve their skills at these two wonderful sports.

Join Rich Lee, Varsity Basketball coach at Fairfield Prep for an exciting week of basketball. Campers will expand their skill set and knowledge of the game through proven techniques and fundamental training. Games will be a part of camp as well as introduction to team concepts and individual development. This is the one you can’t miss!

This summer Wakeman will be providing a week to remember for every child in 1st-5th grade. The children will be broken into groups of 10-12 children with a 6:1 camper/counselor ratio. Children will participate in their favorite sport games such as: dodge ball, capture the flag, kickball, baseball and soccer. They will also participate in arts and crafts, gameroom tournaments, as well as a special event each week. Last year’s events included Break Dancers, Curious Critters and a Drum and Dance group. This year we have restructured our day camp hours. We will be offering half day or full day camps for each of these weeks. 

Half day will run from 9:00am-12:00pm, which will include all the normal activities and the weekly special event. The full day will run from 9:00am-3:30pm for those parents who wish to have their kids enjoy a full day of fun. Full day campers should bring lunch from 12:00pm-12:30pm.

A four day week of FUN! The week will consist of different trips throughout each day of the week. Through the week we will go to Bear Mountain in NY, the Shelton Rinks, Lake Compounce, and Mystic Aquarium.

Two of the fastest growing sports among girls today are coming together for one of Wakeman’s most popular camps. Girls of all abilities will learn and enjoy the game of field hockey and lacrosse through drills, games and contests. Players must bring their own protective eye wear and mouth guard. Lacrosse sticks and Fiel Hockey sticks will be made available to the first 30 girls that need to borrow one.

The fastest growing sport rolls through to the summer. Players of all abilities are welcome to join us for all the lax drills, skill competitions, contests and games that can be possibly packed into two hours! Players must bring their own equipment. Full Equipment required: helmet, shoulder pads, elbow pads, gloves, mouth guard and a stick.
