The Gilpin County Community Center in Black Hawk runs Gilpin County Youth Camp, a state-licensed childcare program for children in kindergarten through 6th grade, offering summer camp days alongside afterschool and Friday care. Campers take part in gym games, crafts and swimming, and the program is largely funded by a Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment substance-abuse block grant that adds one short Positive Action or Botvin LifeSkills lesson per week. Enrollment is open to the public: families complete a registration packet and a $25 annual per-child membership, then book individual days online. The center separately runs Eagles, a free teen drop-in program for ages 12 through high school graduation.

We list only what the camp itself publishes, and programs change — dates, prices, ages and availability can all move after we check. Confirm the details on the camp’s own website and contact Gilpin County Community Center directly before you register or pay. Last checked August 2026.

★★★★★Carolyn HohneBeautiful facility. Plenty of parking.
★★★★★Evan AndersonThey don't chase after you if you run out with a lot of towels...
★★★★★Utah DanielsThe staff is friendly, the pool is great, and the track is well maintained. I see people on the gym equipment and free weights room, but I don't partake.
★★★★★Jen WestieLove my new gym. It has all the things and is quiet.
★★★★★Amber GaumeLovely pools. The kids pool is heated and has great depth variation. They also are wonderful about turning on or off the buckets if a kid does not like them(they do that when they're the only group there) which has been great with the little ones. There's lanes and a diving board in the deep end. And a great pile of toys, which is great for older kids too.
