There is no Extended Camp available for Minis Camp.

If your child will be 3–5 years old by the first day of the camp week you choose, they can be a mini camper!

If your child turns three after June 24 and you would like to sign them up, you will need to contact our registration team for an age override, as our system recognizes ages by the start of all summer programs on June 24 rather than specific weekly camp sessions. Please call (206) 382-5022 and press three for support.
