Central Michigan University's Summer Activity Camp, offered by University Recreation, introduces children 6-12 years old to the wonder of art, entertainment, culture, nature, technology, and social recreation in a university setting.  Each session is facilitated by highly motivated and energetic students, and includes fun-filled explorations, hands-on activities, swimming, field trips and a small camper-to-counselor ratio (8 to 1) that provides lots of individualized attention.

During the nine years of operation, SACamp has filled almost 3,000 camper's summers with fun and excitement.  Each of the seven sessions (themes) promise to be an enjoyable experience.  SACamp is housed right here in the Student Activity Center (SAC), and most activities take place in or around our facility.  During the week, campers will swim every day, bowl, and participate in arts & crafts.  Furthermore, at various times throughout the summer, the campers will go on field trips to such locations as: Island Park, The Midland Center for the Arts, Fazoli's, The Golf Center, and Deerfield Park.
