ICICLE CREEK
SUMMER CAMP

Our summer camps are designed to get your student out into nature, exploring the arts, and having a blast. Here are a few of the things our camps all have in common.

  • We believe the arts are for everyone, so we’re aiming to make our camps accessible to all the students who live in North Central Washington. Our day camps are devised with locals in mind; because serving our community is our priority.

    With different classes, a variety of topics targeted at different ages, and a tiered tuition system, there is something for everyone. We’re thrilled to welcome more local kids to our campus than ever before!

  • We are offering a tiered payment system ($400/$325/$250) where you may pick the pricing that fits your budget best. Your selection is based on the honor system and is kept confidential. All students and campers will participate equally. Picking the highest tier when possible ensures that we can continue offering high quality programming to all students and campers.

  • All of our full day camps include lunch and snacks, included in the price of summer camp. Our meals are prepared fresh each day for campers - and we are happy to make accommodations for dietary needs.

  • All camps, except theater, are listed by grade, with the intention that these are the grade ranges students will be going into after summer break.
