A week outsideSo much to try.
So much to try.
Time to be a kid.
A morning game can turn a stranger into a friend. A first climb can become a story they tell all week.
Our Danville site brings together ropes elements, a climbing wall, Long Pond, and space for games and outdoor skills. Campers participate in age-based groups, with time for the whole camp to connect.
The published day-camp format has a 1:5 staff-to-camper ratio and up to 15 campers in each age group. Confirm current session details and staffing with the office when registering.

side of camp.
Where do we drop off and pick up?
Day camp is based at Adventurelore, 197 Long Pond Road, Danville, NH. The published hours are 8:30 AM–3:30 PM, Monday–Friday. Ask the office for your session’s check-in, pickup, and authorized pickup instructions.
Can my child come without a friend?
Tell us if your child will be coming on their own or feels nervous about joining. Group games and shared experiences give campers opportunities to get acquainted, and staff can discuss how they support that transition.
What do we need to know about swimming and boating?
Tell the office about your camper’s swimming ability and comfort on the water. Ask about the session’s planned activities, supervision, equipment, and participation requirements.
Is day camp therapy?
Day camp is a recreational adventure experience. Fun, friendship, confidence, and growth are part of camp life; clinical counseling and therapeutic groups are offered separately.
Help with camp costs.
Explore hometown assistance, EFA, and a short list of organizations that may help eligible families pay for camp. Parents and guardians contact each funder to confirm their selected camp qualifies.
