Camp North Shore offers the unique balance of a traditional day camp experience in the convenient and familiar setting of North Shore Country Club. With a combination of outstanding amenities, exciting programming, and an experienced and energetic staff team, our structured and fun day camp will be the perfect place for your child.
Every Wednesday at camp is a wacky one with a different festive theme — a true highlight of each week. Look forward to a full day of theme-related games, costumes and activities. Every Thursday, campers will have the opportunity to give back to their communities by working together on a simple, fun, and rewarding community service project — Thankful Thursdays have become a beloved KE Camps tradition. The joy and pride campers feel by participating in these projects is unmatched and something they carry with them well beyond the summer season. We end the week with Friday Fundays.
One of the most beneficial parts of camp is the opportunity for each camper's personal growth. It is our responsibility to create a safe, warm and spirited environment where each child can become an even better version of his or her self. This is where our Camper Values System, SMILE Bands, comes into play. Staff get to acknowledge positive attributes with our SMILE Bands and watch campers grow throughout the summer.
Camp activities include introductory golf (1 group session per week for Full Day campers), tennis (2 introductory group sessions per week), recreational swim in the club's pool each day (Full Day campers), Arts & Crafts, Group Games, and STEM Challenges. These golf and tennis sessions are geared towards beginners and focused on exposing campers to these two sports.

Similarly, we will end our days with Goodbye Camp, a time for wrap-up activities and reflections, SMILE Bands, snacks, and 'see you later's'.
Explore on the camp’s website ↗No two days at camp are alike. Each activity lasts anywhere from 30–45 minutes and then we are on to something different. A typical day includes Hello Camp and Icebreakers, Craft Time, Tennis and/or Golf Sessions, Science Experiments, Lunch, Relay Races, Swimming, Snack, and Goodbye Camp. There is so much more to our program in the way of Wacky Wednesday theme days, weekly community service projects, week-long traditions, our SMILE Band Program, and precious time with our camp counselors.
Explore on the camp’s website ↗We are a 'nut aware' camp. We ask that you do not pack any food for your child that contains nuts. Likewise, the lunches and snacks served by the club will not contain any nuts. If your child has a food allergy and you have questions about this, please do not hesitate to contact us. We can tailor our Fun with Foods activities to eliminate anything to which your child is allergic.

Your Camp Director will touch base with you by phone before camp starts if he or she has questions about your child's allergies. Otherwise, you can speak to your Camp Director on the first day of camp and pass on any pertinent notes.

Required forms include the WI Camper Health Form Supplement (doctor's signature required) and the WI Health History and Emergency Care Plan. Wisconsin state law requires that this form be on file for every camper.
