2024 Camp Ashwell Day Camp Dates and Registration Avaliable Monday, March 18, 2024
About Our Camp
Camp Ashwell runs 9am-4pm, Monday through Friday, at our Program Center in Spokane, with extended hours from 7:45-5:30 daily ($25 per week for morning care and $25 per week for afternoon care). It is members only for this year's day camp. We also offer sessions when Spokane Public Schools are out for Winter and Spring Break.
For just $175/week*, girls going into grades K-8, can enjoy a program tailored to provide experiences in STEM, arts and crafts, cooking, drama, swimming, and other skill-building fun. Each day, girls lead the way by planning their own activities and trips with their camper group. Campers receive a healthy morning and afternoon snack each day and during the summer, lunches thanks to the Summer Meals Program.
*$175 per week if you register by May 15, after $200 per week
Each week has a theme and campers create art, explore science, and go on trips related to that theme. On Friday afternoons, campers celebrate the week with All-Camp, a fun time when they can perform skits, play games, and show off what they’ve learned to the entire camp! We end with a ceremony of achievement to honor badges, patches, and other accomplishments from the week.
