Vacation Camps, School Holidays, Parent Conferences & Staff Inservice Days 2026-2027 - September 21 Camp
The St. Albans Recreation Department's Vacation Camp provides a full day of adventure, creativity, and active play during school holiday breaks, parent conference days, staff in-service days, and other scheduled school closures throughout the 2026–2027 school year.Our Vacation Camp is open to children in Kindergarten through 6th Grade and runs 7:30 AM–4:30 PM. Each day is packed with exciting activities designed to keep campers engaged, active, and making memories. Campers can look forward to sports and games, arts and crafts, outdoor adventures, nature exploration, and daily swimming at the Hard'ack Pool.We are an outdoor-focused program and spend as much time outside as possible, so campers should come prepared for any weather conditions. Whether it's sunshine, chilly temperatures, or a light drizzle, we believe outdoor play is an important part of every camp day. In the event of severe weather, we'll move the fun indoors using our many community spaces, including the Greg Brown Lodge, Collins Perley Sports & Fitness Center, City Hall Auditorium, and the Welden Theatre.Our experienced and enthusiastic counselors are what truly make Vacation Camp special. They are dedicated to creating a safe, welcoming, and positive environment where every child can build confidence, make new friends, and have fun while school is out.
What to Pack - Please send your camper with everything they need for a full day of fun and adventure:
Lunch
Multiple snacks
Refillable water bottle
Swimsuit
Towel
Jacket
Rain gear
Boots (when appropriate)
Hat and gloves (during colder months)
Extra layers of clothing
Layers are always recommended, as Vermont weather can change throughout the day. Being prepared helps ensure your camper stays comfortable and ready for every activity we have planned!Families may also qualify for financial assistance from the Chauncey B Warner Fund. The Warner Home provides scholarship and grant awards to residents of Franklin County, age 21 and under (who meet their financial guidelines), for education, summer camp, and extracurricular activities. The campership funds can be applied to day camps, vacation camps, sport camps etc. Fill out the application, send it into Warner Home at the address listed. You will receive an award letter back if your child qualifies for a scholarship. Please bring that award letter into the Recreation Office so we can sign your child up.
