2018 Summer Day Camp Week 6 (7/30 - 8/3)

This program is currently unavailable. Click here to view all of our current programs.


The summer day camp is a program run by the Goshen Parks & Recreation Commission, which is funded by the Town and Village of Goshen and program fees.  The Goshen Recreation summer day camp is all about having fun. Campers have the opportunity to explore nature, find new talents, try new activities and make lasting friendships and memories. As a participant in our camp, your child will be positively impacted by fun programs and caring staff. Our counselors are dedicated to ensuring a safe atmosphere while making sure the children enjoy themselves to the fullest extent. The campers are grouped by grade and stay with their group as they rotate through the daily activities. The daily itinerary is divided into 6 activities, including lunch.  The campers will have fun playing various games, creating arts & crafts, participating in water fun, field trips and shows that we bring to the camp.   While the daily schedule remains the same, each day has a different twist to keep our campers entertained and on their toes.

Our camp is located at Myron Urbanski Memorial Park (Craigville Park).  Having camp at the park allows us the opportunity to have more nature activities, water sprinklers for those hot days, use of the ball fields, playground and more!

Camp Weather Policy:  Camp will be held rain or shine.   We will have the pavilion and other shelter available to us.

In case of severe weather, parents/guardians will be notified by email, text and Facebook that campers must be picked up immediately.  If you will not be in the area during camp hours please be sure to have someone available to pick up your child in case of an early closing. A plan B is always a good idea!
