Who thrives here Ages 7–14

Skate Camp sits in the upper-elementary to middle-school window where specialization starts to mean something. Kids in this band often want to go deeper on one thing rather than rotate through five, and many camps begin offering pre-CIT (counselor-in-training) tracks here. The right sports fit at this age depends on whether the child wants more autonomy or still wants the safety of a structured rhythm.

Frequently asked about Skate Camp

What ages does Skate Camp accept?
Skate Camp is open to children ages 7–14. Camps publish their own age cutoffs, and some run mixed-age groups internally; check the registration page for that summer's grouping if your child sits at a boundary.
How much does Skate Camp cost?
Skate Camp publishes $195/week for the standard session. USD Final cost depends on session length, sibling discounts, and whether extended care is added on.
What are Skate Camp's hours?
Skate Camp runs 9:00 AM - 12:00 PM. If those hours don't quite cover your work day, check whether extended care or early drop-off is offered separately.
Who runs Skate Camp?
Skate Camp is operated by the local parks department. The operator type matters for tuition policy (refunds, financial aid eligibility) and for what kind of staff training pipeline the camp uses.
Does Skate Camp provide lunch?
Skate Camp does not include lunch — campers bring their own. Most day camps without provided lunch are nut-free or nut-aware, so check the allergy policy before packing. Frozen water bottles double as ice packs and drinks; insulated lunch boxes hold below 40°F for about four hours.
Does Skate Camp offer financial aid?
Yes — Skate Camp offers financial aid or scholarships. Most camp aid is need-based, application-based, and awarded on a rolling basis until funds are exhausted, so apply as soon as the form opens (usually January-February for the upcoming summer).
