WELCOME
Our program is built around a simple and proven philosophy: to provide a comfortable, safe, and fun camp experience for all children. We offer summers filled with excitement and adventure for children ages five through twelve. The key to our success comes from combining a caring, qualified staff, enthusiastic campers, and a unique balance of hands-on activities!
The Wellington Clubhouse program is designed to ensure every camper is active and engaged. Each day features varied activities and challenges, promising your child nonstop fun and excitement. We welcome the individual talents and interests of each of our campers and always look forward to providing an environment that nurtures growth through individual initiative, group challenges, sportsmanship, and fun!
The program is divided into one-week sessions, which begin June 7th and end August 6th. The cost is $165.00 per week. Camp meets five days per week with the campers arriving at 9:00 a.m. and departing at 4:00 p.m. Extended hours are available from 7:00 to 9:00 a.m. and from 4:00 to 5:45 p.m.
Our camp is located at the Wellington School campus in Seminole. The facility is wonderfully equipped with courts, ball fields, a shaded playground, an auditorium, a studio, a computer lab, and classrooms decked out for camp!
Our happy campers come to us from all over and share in creating a friendly atmosphere. It’s enough to make anyone want to be a kid again!
Camp is filled on a first-come basis, so please apply early. Questions regarding registration prior to camp beginning should be directed to Susan Baraybar who can be reached at (727) 528-8717 ext. 212.
