Hawken Day Camps continues its proud tradition of offering some of the best summer enrichment opportunities in Greater Cleveland. Each year, children of all ages discover exciting new experiences by choosing from a wide variety of programs that include sports, arts, science, adventure, design and construction, and aquatics. Every activity is thoughtfully designed to be age-appropriate, engaging, and rewarding. No matter which program your child selects, they will gain new skills, embrace healthy challenges, and achieve meaningful goals—all while strengthening their curiosity, creativity, and critical thinking.

 

At Hawken Day Camps, summer is about more than just activities—it’s about growth and connection. Campers spend their days learning, exploring, and building friendships in a fun, safe, and welcoming environment. Our dedicated staff make it a priority to ensure every child feels included and supported, creating a sense of camaraderie that fosters confidence, joy, and lifelong memories.

 

In addition to our nurturing camp community, each camper receives a nutritious lunch daily and has access to optional pre- and after-care services. For safety and spirit, all campers are required to wear official Hawken Day Camps t-shirts, available for pre-order online and purchased through the camp office beginning one week prior to the start of camp and throughout the summer.

A $300 deposit is required at the time of online registration and will be applied toward the total cost of camp. Payments may be made at any time up until the final balance is due by May 15, 2026. Registrations with unpaid balances after this date will be canceled, and the $300 deposit will be forfeited. No refunds will be issued after the May 15th payment deadline.
