Camp directors may email Staff and Family Programs at staff-family-programs@duke.edu to request a camp registration form.

Outside of the academic year, Duke sponsors numerous camps for all members of the community to help spur athletic and creative growth of children 7 and up. Beginning in June, children work to improve their creative writing, leadership skills or even their throwing and hitting on the baseball diamond.

Children of Duke employees receive a discount of $75 for most athletic camps and $50 or $100 for most arts and academic camps, depending on if they're a day or residential camper. For more information about each program and how to sign up, click on camp's name below.

Disclaimer: Duke University cannot warrant or recommend one particular camp or program over another. A parent or guardian must make the selection of a camp/program after a prudent evaluation. Duke University cannot be responsible for the quality of the camps/programs listed.
