Chapel Hill’s Department of Parks and Recreation runs a fun variety of camps for children and teens in Chapel Hill and surrounding areas. With full-day coverage and both traditional and special-focus camps, campers explore their interests, fill their days with fun, and forge new friendships with kids in their community. Camps are held at several parks, community centers, and schools across Chapel Hill, with each location bringing its own flavor to the camp experience. At the Hargraves Center, campers enjoy sports, games, swimming, and traditional camp activities while exploring the park’s playgrounds, athletic fields, picnic areas, and outdoor pool.
