For over 20 years this innovative day camp program has excited thousands of children about the outdoors and adventure activities. Each day is a new adventure! On the first day, we use the low ropes to help the campers create community within their group. During the middle of the week, we canoe, rock climb, mountain bike, cave and swim at exciting local destinations. On Thursday night the oldest group of campers can join us at our enchanting Morse Hill campsite with a view of the Wendell hills. Friday finishes the week off with our high ropes challenges where campers grow and take pride in their accomplishments. The different locations and activities featured each week along with the price breaks will make multiple weeks a joy for both campers and parents.

Don't know how to bike? Our trained and patient staff will teach you to ride in a safe environment. We also have 3 camps without bike day. Check the schedule!

The counselor to camper ratio in our Day Camp groups is 6:1, and campers will be most successful if they do well with this kind of adult/child ratio in school and other programs.


Payment policies:

We are trying to make Morse Hill accessible to more families, so we are using a sliding scale this summer. In order to provide the best experience possible for campers and offer a fair wage to our staff, our sliding payment scale should more fairly distribute the cost of summer camp. We appreciate your understanding as we work to provide a more equitable model for our families and community. More information on our sliding scale can be found here

We have included many coupons to help you save money, such as paying early, paying with a personal check, multi camp discounts and sibling discounts. We of course offer scholarships to families on a need basis. To apply, please reach us at summer@morsehill.com and our office staff will assist you in the application process.

Lastly, we ask that you pay a 1/3 deposit when you register your child for camp. This ensures you do not have to pay the entire balance up front. 

DISCOUNT IF YOU PAY WITH A PERSONAL CHECK! ALL PRICES INCLUDE CREDIT CARD FEES.

ADDITIONAL $13 OFF FOR PAYING IN FULL 2 MONTHS BEFORE CAMP STARTS. Additional discounts available for sibling campers and registering for multiple camps. 

Transportation:

This year we will be handling transportation registration differently than in past years. Please register your child/ren for each week you need transportation IN ADDITION TO registering them for each camp week. Take note that if you register your child for a 2-Week Camp, you'll need to register them for both weeks of transportation separately. Transportation will no longer be available as an add-on. 

Transportation is available on a first come, first served basis. Using this new registration model will allow us to equitably distribute spots on the bus across all day and 2-week camps. Transportation will show "WAIT LIST" when full. Available weeks can be found here. 

Transportation is not available for the following camps: AET, Hike and Canoe, and Base Camp. 

The bus leaves from Amherst Regional High School at 8:30am and returns at 5:00pm. The bus leaves from Northampton from Sheldon Field at 8:10am and returns at 5:20pm.
