Summer Camp

Summer camp is all about experiences - creating memories, building independence, and exploring the world around us in fun and meaningful ways! Our summer programming is designed to engage, inspire, and immerse our campers in exciting activities that foster growth, confidence, and connection.

 

Tuesdays & Thursdays: Swimming & City Adventures
Twice a week, some of our campers will head out for swimming days, taking the Brown Line a few stops to add to the adventure! It’s more than just a swim—it’s an opportunity to build confidence, practice life skills, and enjoy the full experience of navigating the city together.

 

Wednesdays: Field Trip Day
Chicago is our playground! Every Wednesday, we set out on a new adventure to explore the beauty and excitement of our incredible city. From museums to Farms, every trip is a chance to learn, discover, and connect with the world around us.

 

Fridays: The LEEP Lemonade Stand
Fridays are all about entrepreneurship and teamwork as our campers become mini business owners! They’ll run their very own lemonade stand, learning valuable social, math, and problem-solving skills along the way. At the end of the summer, the group will vote on how to spend their hard-earned earnings—a fun and empowering way to wrap up their summer experience!

 

Every week at LEEP Forward’s summer camp is filled with excitement, hands-on learning, and moments that spark joy and growth. We can’t wait to make this summer one to remember!
