Wel­come to Camp Squankum

Camp Squankum is spon­sored by the Depart­ment of Parks and Recre­ation. It is a day camp that offers the youth of our town a mul­ti­tude of activ­i­ties includ­ing sports, swim­ming, clubs, arts and crafts, music, day trips, and much more. Our camp coun­selors are Highly Qual­i­fied Teach­ers that are com­mit­ted to the camp’s phi­los­o­phy to offer an enriched and excit­ing pro­gram that encour­ages our campers to engage in new phys­i­cal and cre­ative activ­i­ties and to develop mean­ing­ful friendships. If the objec­tive for your child is to have a fun relax­ing sum­mer, to meet new friends, and to have new expe­ri­ences then Camp Squankum is the place for you. Click on the links below to see many of the dif­fer­ent adven­tures that our campers expe­ri­enced last year. Come and find out why our kids can­not wait for the sum­mer to begin. We invite you to learn about our camp by attend­ing one of our Open Houses.

Sincerely,

Brian Cope

Direc­tor, Parks and Recreation

Camp Squankum CIT Program
The CIT Program is an option for our upper lever campers. CITs spend half the day as a camper and the other half of the day with CIT duties which can include helping counselors to clean up after lunch, helping to set up activities, helping to serve pizza, pretzels, and water bottles, assisting younger campers by putting on their swim bands, etc…We do plan special events for the CITs that are separate from our whole camp trips and activities. Our CITs are given a 35% discount off the standard week cost of camp.

To be eligible for our CIT Program, a camper must be entering either 8th or 9th grade in the Fall, attend a minimum of four weeks of camp, and complete the CIT Application. Please keep in mind that there is a selection process, and being in the correct grade level does not guarantee acceptance into the program. Click below to apply for the CIT Program.

CIT Application

Please NOTE This is a 2 Step process:

Step 1:

CIT’s fill out the CIT application

Step 2:

A Parent or Guardian still needs to Register the CIT for the camp.
