Skidmore College's summer day camp for children entering grades 1 through 8, based at Falstaff's Pavilion on the Saratoga Springs campus and run by the college's Office of Special Programs. Days run Monday-Friday 8:30am-5:00pm and mix art, music, nature activities, recreation, journaling, crafts, creative writing and STEM, with tennis lessons new for 2026 and weekly field trips to sites such as Saratoga Spa State Park, Moreau Lake State Park and Lake George. Campers use college facilities including the Williamson Sports Center, Schick Art Gallery, Tang Teaching Museum, Zankel Music Center, the McCaffery-Wagman tennis centre and Skidmore's North Woods. Groups are organised by grade with counsellor-to-camper ratios from 1:7 to 1:10; the campus pool is closed for repairs in summer 2026, so swimming is not offered.
