Learning Through S.T.E.A.M
Walnut Acres Summer Camp is a place children know their choice will be respected. From planned activities to spontaneous interests, we provide tools to foster each child’s independence and growth. We offer programs designed for children 4 years 6 months to 12 years of age. We have been serving the Walnut Creek Community for over 35 years.
We ask that only families with front line workers, first responders, or where care is critical register on Monday May 11th. All other families will have the opportunity to register for our summer program on Tuesday May 12th.
