Our Mission
Through a holistic approach, and an individual lens that focuses on each camper’s needs and well-being, a growth mindset is nurtured. The Camp SHAKE formula increases skills by teaching athletic techniques, drills, insight, and mindfulness. Participants are shown how to be effective team members, while they are enjoying the process of reaching their full potential. Camp SHAKE encourages athletes, ages 5-14 (grades K-8th), to fully embrace sports, and allows them to experience the rewarding feeling of their hard work paying off.
