Offered late-June through mid August at our academy in Virginia Beach, students participate in weekly field trips to local museums, parks, and other educational and exciting venues throughout Hampton Roads. Campers also enjoy weekly swimming and nearly 20 hours of STREAM-based activities offering robust hands-on learning experiences to stimulate creativity, enrich learning opportunities, and encourage a love for reading.
Operation Camp provides opportunities for military children ages 5-12 to make meaningful connections. For military children, who may face moving to a new city, state, and school every two to three years, these friendships, support networks, and memories last a lifetime.
Operation Camp focuses on:
A child’s formative years aren’t just based on the typical school-year calendar. We engage military children in a focused, but fun environment of childhood education. Socialization skills and healthy living behaviors are gained through our licensed Summer Camp retreats. Each week is themed to enhance learning while developing strong and resilient military children. We provide a firm footing to enable these young people to reach their full potential.
