Dear Campers and Parents:
Thank you for your interest in Delaware Technical Community College’s Summer Camp Program.
We strive to provide a safe, exciting, and FUN-filled environment for children ages five to seventeen.
Delaware Tech Summer Camps are offered at several convenient locations across New Castle County
including the George Campus in Wilmington, the Stanton Campus in Newark, and the Innovation and
Technology Center in New Castle. Our camp program offers the best of both worlds: education and
fun.
The full day camp is Monday-Friday from 9 a.m. - 4 p.m. You have the option of choosing Camp-on-
Campus, Sports, Cooking, STEM or Specialty Camps you want to experience from 9 a.m. - 12 p.m. Then
from 12 - 4 p.m., you will participate in on- and off- campus activities including field trips. The field
trips offer a variety of excursions from skating to bowling to the trampoline park and more. While on
campus, the activities may include kickball tournaments, exposure to degree programs at the College,
and community outreach presentations. No matter what camp or week you attend, there is always
something new and exciting for you to discover!
The half day camp options have been amplified! We wanted to offer camps that will accommodate
your busy summer schedule. Half day camps are Monday-Friday and allow you to choose either
9 a.m. - 12 p.m. or 1 p.m. - 4 p.m. options. Combine two separate camp selections to maximize your
summer experience.
Summer camp is right around the corner! Please be aware that camps sell out fast so register
early for best selection! All you need to do to register and reserve your space is make a $25.00 non-
refundable deposit for each week chosen. The balance of each week of camp is due ten days prior to
the start of each camp week.
The camp staff have been busy preparing for the summer camp season. Whether this is your first year
at camp or tenth, it doesn’t matter. We can’t wait for you to see what we have in store for you!
Please do not hesitate to contact us anytime at 302.453.3041; we are eager to speak with you, learn
about your child(ren), and answer your questions!
We look forward to seeing you in June for a FUN-filled summer!
Best Regards,
Delaware Tech Camp Staff
