At Shelby Township's BEST Summer Camp, every day is packed with excitement, movement, and fun! Our structured schedule keeps kids engaged with a mix of indoor and outdoor activities, sports, and games. Here’s a look at what a typical day looks like:

Morning Kickoff

We start the day with a fun warm-up, group games, and team-building activities to get everyone energized and ready for action.

Sports & Active Play

Campers participate in a variety of sports like soccer, basketball, and martial arts, where they learn teamwork, sportsmanship, and new skills while staying active.

Creative & Social Activities

Kids enjoy arts and crafts, team challenges, and group discussions that help build leadership and communication skills.

Outdoor Adventures

Weather permitting, we take the fun outside for exciting playground time, obstacle courses, and nature activities.

Wrap-Up & Reflection

We close the day with a cool-down session, group discussions, and recognition of achievements to ensure every camper leaves feeling accomplished and excited for the next day!

Our goal is simple: Keep kids active, engaged, and having fun—all while limiting screen time! With childhood obesity rates at nearly 20% in the U.S., we believe movement and social interaction are more important than ever.
