Daily Activities
Specialty areas are taught by experienced personnel who are certified in their area, teacher or nearing teaching certification. They are "camp people" who are extremely able to
meet the need of children.
Swimming
 Each of our two heated outdoor pools are staffed by certified American Red Cross Water Safety Instructors (WSI lifeguards). Children receive daily swim lessons in accordance with American Red Cross standards to teach the campers swimming techniques and water safety. They also enjoy scheduled supervised free swim time. Our certified staff utilizes personal flotation devices for those children still in their early stages of learning and for personal safety.
Arts & Crafts
 Campers enjoy such activities as traditional
arts and crafts, jewelry and bead making, creative crafts, painting and more.
Older campers are also involved in drawing, and other advanced projects such as
Macrame, T-shirt design and model projects. Our unique programs provide opportunities
for campers to create their own individual projects and group projects
that coordinate with our weekly special themes.
Nature Campers learn about wildlife and conversation
while exploring our natural surroundings located on 38 acres. Other
nature activities include exploration, craft projects using material from
nature, appreciation of the environment, and collecting and identifying natural
specimens such as trees, flowers, rocks, insects, and birds. In addition, older
campers learn about proper construction of campfires and fire safety.
Music
 Our music program elicits camp spirit and
enthusiasm. Traditional HappyLand Day Camp songs and cheers as well as other
popular children's songs are taught and sung throughout the summer. Younger campers
enjoy music appreciation and instruction in rhythm and movement. The camp
season culminates with a camp-wide show under direction of our music
instructor.
Recreation & Sports
We offer the unique opportunity for campers to experience a variety of activities. Our "skills oriented" program always takes into account the child's age, strength and exposure to each activity. We encourage each child to do his or her "personal best" in a supportive environment, while recognizing participation is more important than performance. From archery to soccer to volleyball, we
encourage teamwork, fair play and cooperation. These are the
cornerstones of HappyLand's Outdoor Recreation program.
