Story

Children are invited to experience a season of outdoor adventure and friendship at Knox Park and Petersen Park. Under the guidance of trained, caring counselors, campers enjoy a safe and welcoming environment filled with games and engaging activities.

The program caters to three distinct groups: Junior Camp (ages 6–10), Senior Camp (ages 11–14), and Junior Leaders (ages 13–15), who assist staff while enjoying camp perks. Families can choose from flexible 5-day or 3-day schedules, though the Junior Leader track requires a full week’s commitment. It is a premier choice for those seeking classic summer fun in the heart of McHenry’s natural spaces.
