Why Kennolyn’s Day Camp?
Ready to get your child away from technology and into a nourishing community of fun, friends, and the great outdoors? Give your child a healthy dose of GRATITUDE, POSITIVE ATTITUDE, and GROWTH at Kennolyn Day Camp!
On 450 acres of privately owned redwood forest only 4 miles from town, and 1 mile from Overnight Camp, Kennolyn Day Camp is just a short bus ride away. Your child will thrive in this fun, active, supportive environment, and you will get a break (or at least be able to work without interruption). And after a day of exploring the fields, pond, and miles of trails, they’ll be happy-tired after each fun day!
We are the only traditional summer day camp accredited by the American Camp Association in the area. Their rigorous standards help guide our policies, procedures, and practices. Nowhere else in the local region will you find a more complete, authentic summer day camp experience than Kennolyn. Just ask your friends and neighbors!

Overview
Campers minimum age 5 by January 1, 2023 and entering grades K-9 are eligible. Campers entering 10-11th grade may apply for the Leadership Development program. Campers are placed in coed groups based on their grade. Two well-trained adult counselors remain with the group at all times. Groups follow a planned schedule with some choice built in from Monday through Thursday. On Friday Fun Day, campers grades 2+ choose their own activities during the morning. The afternoon wraps up the week with a fun event based on a different theme each week. This is a great change of pace for campers who spend multiple weeks at Kennolyn.
Typical Day
The fun starts with songs and chants right when campers board the bus. Once at camp there are more songs, skits, cheers and flag rising at our campfire amphitheater in a beautiful redwood grove. Five activity periods keep campers busy with planned breaks for snack and lunch. We reunite again for even more songs and skits at the end of the day and then board the buses for the ride home.
