Field Trips
Every Wednesday, the Day Camp takes a bus fieldtrip to an area attraction. Campers depart at approximately 9:30 a.m. and return to CSM between 2:30 and 4:30 p.m. Each child receives a Day Camp T-shirt on Wednesday morning to wear on the trip. We ask you, the parent/guardian, to review the Camp Stella Maris Transportation Policies with your camper prior to the fieldtrip.
