Summer River Camp

Explore the Huron River with fishing, nets, and boats - a week filled with learning, adventure, and fun!  Have your kids join us for perfect summer days as we canoe, pedal boat, kayak, motorboat, fish, cookout, art, and play all in wonderful Gallup Park. Campers will have a blast while gaining valuable boating and fishing skills with playing silly games to learn to maneuver their boats around the pond and beyond.  All camps will venture out to swim at Fuller Pool and the River Adventurers will spend a day paddling down the river through town.  River Day Camp is based out of the Gallup Park Meeting Room adjacent to the canoe livery and our new river themed playground.  The camp is licensed by the state of Michigan and the staff are certified in American Red Cross First Aid, CPR and life guarding.  Each camper receives a coupon to bring their family and friends back to share the boating fun.
