How are kids grouped at camp?
At Camp Galileo, we group campers by grade in four age groups:
Rising K – 1st (Nebulas)
Rising 2nd – 3rd (Stars)
Rising 4th – 5th (Supernovas)
Rising 6th – 8th (Meteors)
Our curriculum is carefully customized for each group.
For campers entering 8th – 10th grades, at select locations, we offer our Counselor in Training (CIT) program. With guidance from dedicated staff, CITs hone essential leadership skills (like collaboration, communication, goal setting, giving feedback, etc.), mentor younger campers, and take on design challenges to increase camp magic & joy or to build something cool with their fellow CITs—all while making new friendships and experiencing all the fun of a classic Galileo summer.
