"We believe that kids need to be exposed to a wide variety of activities," said Mike McDonnell, president of Kidventure. "We are taking a holistic approach to camp and kids can create relationships in camp because if you ask a kid what is most important in camp it's their friendships, right? It's creating and fostering new relationships."

Kidventure runs both day camps and overnight camps. Kids ages 3-13 can be dropped off in the morning and picked up at the end of the day. The overnight camp programs are for kids ages 8-18.
