Who thrives here Ages 5–12

Camp Mania fits middle-elementary campers — old enough for skill-building to land, young enough that friend-group dynamics and counselor warmth still matter more than program rigor. Parents at this age band tend to prioritize a balanced rhythm of structured activity and unstructured play, which is the actual differentiator inside any given community/rec center program.

Frequently asked about Camp Mania

What ages does Camp Mania accept?

How much does Camp Mania cost?
Camp Mania doesn't publish a flat per-week rate — pricing varies by session. Resident Registration starts April 1st at 8:00 a.m. Non-residents starts April 15th at 8:00 a.m. 2026 pricing TBD as of 2026-04-16. Contact the camp directly for the current schedule of fees.
What are Camp Mania's hours?
Camp Mania runs 7:30 a.m. - 5:30 p.m.. If those hours don't quite cover your work day, check whether extended care or early drop-off is offered separately.
Who runs Camp Mania?
Camp Mania 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 Camp Mania provide lunch?
Camp Mania 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.
