Secret Ops Summer, Ages 5-11

Welcome to Secret Ops Summer
Does your child have what it takes to be the next top secret agent? At this exciting week-long camp, kids ages 5-11 will step into the thrilling world of espionage as they learn stealthy skills, solve puzzles, and embark on daring missions. From crafting secret identities to mastering spy gadgets, each day builds toward the ultimate finale: an action-packed team mission to save the day! Using Collage’s expansive campus, children will engage in outdoor scavenger hunts, indoor problem-solving adventures, and team-building challenges—all designed to spark their imagination and foster creativity.

This camp encourages critical thinking, teamwork, and confidence, ensuring your child walks away with memories they’ll treasure—and skills they’ll love to show off. The best part? Every junior agent will leave with spy gear and a certificate of completion to prove they’re ready for their next mission!
