2025 Overview & Registration
Activate offers full-day camps for incoming 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th graders. Our camps have an arts focus, especially media arts, such as animation, digital photography, and design. Campers also do traditional art and engineering. Additionally, they swim three times a week, visit local parks, and have a lot of indoor choice time, in which they can explore art, music, games, books, puzzles, and more.
There is a also a 45 minute of literacy block in the morning with the goal of preventing summer reading regression.
Tween/Teen Assistants
Every week, there are two slots for incoming 7th and 8th graders to assist. Tuition for assistants is 20% off the regular tuition. There is more information on this page.
Camp Schedule, Costs, and Field Trip Schedule*
*In the first week of camp, we will not go to Sellwood Pool on Monday and Wednesday because the pool doesn’t open until Friday. 6/20. Instead, we’ve booked a private rental of North Clackamas Aquatic Park on that Tuesday.
Waiting List
To join a waiting list, select the greyed-out 'register' button on the registration page.
Users must enter their credit card number when signing up for a waiting list slot but will not be charged. If a camp slot becomes available, we’ll email the next person on the waiting list and ask if they are still interested in the opening. They will have 24 hours to respond. We’ll complete their transaction with the card on file if they are still interested.
