Summer 2023 Camps Recommendations

With summer here, it’s time to get out and have some fun!

Mo’ Motion has halfday and full day camps MONDAY-FRIDAY at West 76th Street/Riverside Park  every week over the summer of 2023.  Morning is filled with workouts and fitness training on the basketball courts and fitness area at W76th or W7oth (under the overpass if it rains).  Afternoons are filled with player-led Mo’ Creativity endeavors (local field trips, scavenger hunts, music and volunteer work at the park).  You can sign up by the day or week.  Then we have them again in August.  Players can sign up for individual days or the full week.  Click here for more info.  

The camps below are other options that generally fall around the dates of what we offer.  We picked these based on the experiences of our alumni.  If you have any others to add, please let me know.
