When School is Out, Camp Villa is IN!
St. Ursula Villa offers a wide variety of summer
programs for campers of all ages and interests. As
Lisa Wolfer, Director of Early Childhood and Summer
Programs explains, "Camp Villa builds community
and encourages positive interactions and socialization;
cultivates discovery, creativity, curiosity, fun,
and self-awareness; and offers a stimulating and
supportive environment that encourages exploration."
More than 320 students participated in Camp
Villa last summer, keeping the campus abuzz with
discovery and adventure. “Specialty Camps” included
Lego Robotics, Young Artists, Math/Language Arts
Refresher, Wearable Art, Outdoor Explorers, Harry
Potter, Princess Ballet, Italian Cooking, Pottery
Wheel Throwing, Mini-Musical, Wet & Wild Water
Fun, Science Sampler, and HSPT Exam Prep.
The Villa’s summer programs offer all campers
fun and engaging enrichment activities and ideal
transition opportunities for new students joining the
Villa in the upcoming school year, as well as summer
income for Villa faculty and staff. Villa Junior High
students volunteer with our younger campers,
assisting with camp activities and developing Villa
community. Robust schedule offerings provide full-day
coverage for 3-year-old through 3 rd -grade students as
a huge boon to working parents and families. Camp
Villa attendance has been steadily growing and many
popular camps are at capacity with waiting lists,
proving that “Camp Villa is IN!”
“Such good, fun, quality time
for the kids! Also love Camp
Villa’s academic reading and
writing refresher classes.”
