SUMMER CAMP ADVENTURES
Summer is just around the corner! That means longer days and more time for fun under the sun. With the kids out of school, parents and guardians want to ensure they don’t spend the summer staring at their iPads, vegging out, slowly becoming one with the couch. As luck would have it, we have a couple of suggestions to keep everyone engaged and out and about this summer. We even have a summer camp for adults only! How amazing is that!?!
Boys and Girls Club of The West Valley
Currently celebrating its 30th Anniversary, the Boys and Girls Club of the West Valley’s mission is “to inspire and enable all young people, especially those who need them the most, to reach their full potential as productive, caring, and responsible adults.” Located at 7245 Remmet Ave. in Canoga Park, the club runs multiple youth and teen programs to benefit the community, providing safe, fun, and welcoming spaces for youth ages 6 to 18.
Their 2022 Summer Camp will run from 8 am to 6 pm on June 14 through July 22. Membership renewal is required for registration. Lunch and snacks will be provided daily. This year’s camp will include coding, fine arts, arts & crafts, book two movie club, martial arts, and much more. The camp allows children to express their creativity, participate in sports, learn new skills, make friends, and, most importantly, HAVE FUN!

Camp No Counselors
Who says kids get to have all the fun? Say hello to this Los Angeles Adult Summer Camp—Camp No Counselors! This all-inclusive three-night summer camp event for grown-ups includes various camp activities during the day and fun social events at night. This camp has rope courses, archery lessons, sports and games, live bands, and campfires. Beverages (of the adult variety) are served during meals, happy hours, and an open bar at night. Making connections and bringing people together while having fun is the goal of this camp.
Camp No Counselors started during Labor Day weekend 2013 as a getaway for friends who wanted to reconnect, get together, and escape from the pressures of adult life. What started as a weekend getaway became an epic adult summer camp adventure that continues to this day.
