Adventure Awaits You This Summer!
Join us for a wonderful adventure! Glenwood Country Day School’s Summer Adventures Camp is located on a 40-acre campus and is “The Best Small Camp” in Howard County for children ages 2 – 11. Whatever your interests are… we have a summer for you!
Glenwood’s Summer Adventures Camp offers many different opportunities for campers to learn, grow, and have fun all summer long. Our counselors and low camper-to-staff ratio allow the campers to have fun in a safe, supervised environment. Each day, campers will experience fun activities with their counselor. The campers will have ample opportunities to explore on our 40-acre setting. They will love going to our pool frequently. Your child will spend time with old friends and make new ones while exploring lively outdoor adventures. Every Friday, we have a “Special Day.” Parents will be emailed a calendar of “Friday’s Special Days”, such as Hat Day, Superhero Day, Pirate Day, etc.
SOMETHING NEW AND EXCITING: There will be 3 options that you can sign up online for before camp begins.
- We will have Snow Cones every day that you can purchase.
- We will have pizza every Friday that you can purchase.
- We will have a snack pack (bag of chips, cookies, and a drink) every day that you can purchase.
Summer Adventures Camp employs fun dedicated counselors. We choose individuals who enjoy working with kids in a camp environment. All summer camp counselors are qualified and carefully screened. Mrs. Poland, the camp director, works along with the counselors to plan and carry out a fun-filled day of activities. Counselors are trained in CPR, first aid & use of AEDs. Background checks are completed on all staff by MD State Police and the FBI. In addition, we have two certified lifeguards who are at the pool.
Summer Adventures Camp is regulated and licensed by the Maryland State Department of Health and Mental Hygiene and fully meets all camp certification requirements keeping the safety, security, and fun of our campers as our top priority.
This year’s calendar is packed full of fun themes including Friendship; Summer Olympics; Dinosaurs; Red, White, and Blue; Under the Sea; Lost in Space; Creepy Crawlies; A Life on the Farm; Wild, Wild, West; Safari Adventures.

We teach children to swim in a safe, caring, positive, and fun environment. We recognize that each child is an individual with different emotional and developmental needs and abilities. We cater lessons to those needs. Beginners will focus on water acclimation, floating and kicking skills. Advanced swimmers focus on the various strokes such as freestyle and backstroke, then progress to butterfly and breaststroke. Your swimmers will also learn valuable safety rules and survival skills while we strive to encourage the development of your child’s self-esteem, confidence, responsibility and love of the water.
Parents should open the Swim Lesson Application and choose which camp weeks you would like your child to attend swim lessons. This is to be mailed to Glenwood Country Day School with a check. Circle the days that you would like for your child to attend. Please note that your child will need to be enrolled in our Summer Adventures Camp to attend swim lessons. Swim lessons are on a first-come-first-serve basis.
