Enjoy an idyllic summer experience at one of The Children's Community beloved camps!
"If you're yearning for the wild abandon of how children used to spend summers...this camp delivers that authentic experience!" - TCC Summer Camp Parent
All of The Children's Community camps meet on our beautiful, expansive, 17-acre campus in Fenton that features forests, fields, gardens, trails, a hobby farm with barnyard, and an adventure playground, all in a warm, inclusive, and affirming culture. We take time and intention to nurture connection among the young people and the land here. Children are people, and we support each young person here in crafting the summer camp experience they want to enjoy, all in the context of the relationships they build with other campers and the environment around them. Children feel safe being themselves here, and spend their days climbing trees, befriending frogs, splashing in the creek, exploring the land, getting to know our resident animals, creating, laughing, and making new friends. We make childhood magic here!
This will be the camp your children ask about returning to all year long. Join us for truly free play, nature connection, and welcoming faces! The Children's Community Camp is located in Fenton just off Gravois behind the Bluffs.
