Dear Parents/Guardians,
As the oldest and largest FREE summer day camp in the nation, we are excited to once again bring Hartford’s kids warm summer days filled with moments of excitement, fun, friendship, and self-confidence.
Camp Courant’s mission is to provide Hartford children equal opportunity to participate in recreational and educational experiences that balance fun with enrichment while expanding horizons, instilling confidence, promoting healthy lifestyle choices, and inspiring big dreams for the future. Campers become part of a historic camp community that continues to grow and evolve, but has also stood the test of time for 127 years.
At this time, Camp Courant plans to open at full capacity for the 2021 camp season! While this decision is not final, we are planning diligently in an effort to provide your child with a memorable summer, filled with fun and educational activities, all while in a safe and positive environment.
We have been working closely with local and state health departments, Office of Early Childhood, and American Camping Association to ensure we have properly executed all the necessary safety protocols to minimize risk of exposure to COVID-19 at Hartford’s Camp Courant. More information is available here (coming soon) and this information will be posted throughout the camp site.
Welcome to the Camp Courant family. 2021 is going to be the summer of a lifetime.
Tim Uhl, Camp Director
