GRIT SUMMER CAMP 2026

ONE SUMMER - THREE EXPERIENCES

Where kids move, explore and become more confident versions of themselves - every single day! 

At GRIT, summer isn't something kids pass through.

Its something they build. 

Welcome to Summer, the GRIT way! 

We believe the best camps blend: 

✔️Movement & Imagination

✔️ Structure & Choice

✔️ Challenge & Joy

Every day at GRIT is designed with PURPOSE - so kids feel safe trying new things, proud of what they accomplish, and excited to come back tomorrow! 

A designed experience led by coaches kids look up to, powered by movement, creativity, and exploration. 

Welcome to Summer, the GRIT way!

What parents are saying...

My daughter has participated in GRIT's summer camp and after school program—and both provide a safe, fun, high-energy experience. The staff is really attentive and supportive. I’m grateful our community has GRITas a home away from home for active kids.

Kristin M.

My 4 & 6-year olds thrived in a very safe environment and made lots of friends in the 2 weeks that they attended. I have noticed significant growth in my youngest’s communication skills. Thank you Coaches for providing such a wonderful experience!

Garret P.

My kids attended Future Freerunners and two weeks of Summer Camp. They absolutely loved the experience and the coaches!  Hats off to GRIT for such a rewarding experience! They still talk about Coach Kim like she was their older sister.
