BCAP Summer Camp

There's nothing basic about the BCAP Summer Camp experience! Just take a look at the fun activities we have in store:
Cultural Visits
As a camper, you get a chance to visit two of the six different Heart of Brooklyn sites daily. Come and participate in educator-led tours, hands-on workshops, group projects and performances! We make creative learning fun as you explore cultural gems right in your own community. At each turn, our BCAP campers open the door to magical discoveries!
Lunch and Playtime
Everyday, pack your lunch and come to our all-camp picnic! Then join us as we play sports and games with our brand new friends.
Special Activities and Games
Your twenty camper group will participate in teambuilding challenges that encourage friendship and respect. Plus, each session enjoys a field day and a Showcase Talent Show on the last day of camp!
