SUMMER PROGRAMS
Founded in 1959, Summer Programs at The Stony Brook School have sought to encourage and strengthen families by offering them a place where their children will be inspired, challenged, encouraged, and well cared for. We are excited to continue the mission of challenging young men and women to know Christ, love others, develop their skills, and to serve others with the gifts and knowledge they have been given. Our focus has not changed as we head into our 62nd summer.
We offer a wide variety of program options for campers entering grades one through 10 so that each child can find a program that best fits his or her interests.
Our programs are split into three different categories: Sports, STEM, and Specialty. Each program within these categories focus on skill development as well as on developing a passion for activity and creativity.
We don’t have a registration deadline; however, spaces do fill up quickly, so early registrations are encouraged.
At the center of everything we do is a team of loving individuals who have dedicated their summer to serving your family. Our staff members are well trained to provide focused care for each camper and are well-versed in the activities and knowledge critical to success in their specific programs. As a Christian school and camp, we ask our staff members to follow the lifestyle that Jesus Christ lived by faithfully serving others.
