Summer Day Camp

Monday through Friday

June 22 – September 4, 2026

8:30am – 4:30pm

Ages 6 & Up — limited to 24 adventurers per day

Going into its 32nd year, Mud City Adventures is the Stowe area’s original adventure day camp. Yet as much as we have explored the local mountains, lakes, rivers, and trails every day is still a new adventure. Activities may include canoeing/kayaking, rope swinging, swimming hole hopping, river safariing, hiking, tubing, fire and adventure tool building, camp fire cooking, mountain biking, arts and crafts, mega slip-n-slide, and more. Confidence building is key and everyone thrives in our non-competitive “challenge by choice” environment.

Ages 6 & Up

Weekly Thursday Overnight Camping Adventure

Every Thursday night

June 22 – September 4, 2026

5:00pm Thursday to 9:00am Friday

Ages 6 & Up

Stick around after Thursday’s Day Camp Adventure, or show up just in time for the weekly camp-out! We usually head to one of the nearby Vermont State Parks to set up camp and chef it up over the campfire before some twilight fun in the outdoors. We’ll play games, tell stories, maybe go for a sunset swim or paddle, and enjoy the campfire before settling down to sleep under the stars in tents or a lean-to shelter. Adventurers will wake up to a camp-style breakfast, usually consisting of fruit, oatmeal, eggs, or cereal, and a cup of amazing Mansfield Dairy hot cocoa before breaking down camp and heading back in time for Friday’s Day Camp Adventure.

Teamwork makes the dream work. Here's an older camper giving some support to a younger camper while on a hike during Mud City Adventures day camp in Stowe Vermont.

We like to hang out at the playground and let the kiddos play on the jungle gym and swings whenever we find one nearby. There's always a new activity every day at Mud City.

Here are a few campers having fun at the beach with bubbles. Mud City Adventures, based in Stowe, Vermont, operates a day camp program for kids.
