Welcome to SAAC Camp
Scotia Academic and
Arts Camp is an educational enrichment program held for six weeks. Our goal
is to provide a safe, fun
environment where children can be creative, make friends,
and continue to learn throughout the summer. Operating under the philosophy
that "a child is not a vase to be filled, but a fire to be lit," SAAC has enriched
the lives of thousands of children since its inception in 1963.

Program Highlights
With trained
instructors, SAAC campers explore the disciplines of math, science,
art, music, computer literacy, and physical education. Campers participate
in several classes each day, as well as a recreational period and a 'free choice'
period, during which the child can select from a list of activities in the various
disciplines, and can choose to spend the entire period at one activity or to move
freely to several of the activities.
In addition, every Friday, the entire camp goes on an all-day field trip. We
strive to visit places sthat are both educational and fun for the campers.
*Note: All trips are subject to change, based on weather and/or availability.
