Summer Camps

Little Star offers day camps for students ages 0-6, outdoor adventure camps for ages 6 & 7 and an overnight archery camp for ages 8-10. Students have a balance of free time to explore what they’re passionate about in addition to fun activities related to the daily camp theme.

Registration for Summer 2025 will open March 10 for families currently enrolled at Little Star, and March 17 for all others.

Registration Information
Initial enrollment is open for new families March 17th - March 25th. All applications received during that time will be considered equally (registration is not first-come, first served). If interest exceeds capacity, we will have a randomized lottery for the spaces available. We do our best to enroll everyone who registers, and ask for your patience and flexibility during the process. Families will be notified no later than April 14th about their enrollment status. We will accept applications on a rolling basis after March 26th. Applications for financial aid are due on Monday, April 14. For more information, see our Draw FAQs.

Camp Information
Little Star offers day camps for children ages 0-6, an outdoor adventure camp for children ages 6 -7, and overnight archery camp for ages 8-10. Camps for school-age children are provided by many organizations throughout the Methow Valley (see below!)
