Adventure Day Camp

Safe environment, wonderful leaders and counselors, great variety of activities, great experience for kids, bussing is amazing, even for the small kids. Highly recommend and we will be back. Not one negative thing to say whatsoever.

It is finally time to give ADC and Kevin the 5 star review they deserve.
This is my 10 year old daughter’s fourth summer at ADC. She absolutely loves every single minute of every day, including the bus pick up and drop off!
She does 6 weeks of camp and it is never enough, she wants all 3 sessions!
I love hearing her explain her camp experience to her friends, which always ends with AWESOME!!!
Kevin, is fully engaged and eager to communicate. His love of what he does comes across in how the camp is run. It is FUN and it is done expertly.
For the last two years my 14 year old step daughter joined as a pre CIT and then a CIT.
Kevin and his team went out of his way to make her feel comfortable, help and guide her to be the best CIT she could be and she really enjoyed it.
It was a lot of work for her but also very enjoyable and rewarding.
I cannot give enough emphasis on how amazing I think this camp is.
I grew up in a country where we never had summer camps, so to see my kids have this experience thrills me.
Thank you so much Kevin and team, you guys ROCK!
See you next summer.

Our daughter went to Adventure Day Camp last summer and I cannot say enough about how happy she was to go to camp everyday. This was her first summer camp experience and Kevin and his staff made it a truly memorable one for her. There are a variety of activities available that kept her engaged throughout the day. The staff was extremely attentive and I felt confident that our daughter was well taken care of throughout the day. We did not do the overnight session last summer, but we are looking forward to doing it this year as we have heard so many great things. ADC is one of the best camps in the area and we look forward to both of our kids attending this summer.

Kevin runs an exceptional program that offers campers a huge variety of activites and experiences from which to choose. His staff is made up mostly of former campers (a strong testament to the quality of the program in itself). They are super engaged and do a great job making sure that each and every child feels welcome and included. The facility at Seven Hills School is a great setting, and the proximity to Heather Farms Park and all of its resources is ideal. ADC is the connsumate summer camp experience, and our son and daughter can’t wait to go back next year!

My son has gone to ADC through elementary and middle school and went as
1^st year CIT this year. The camp is run by Kevin, an amazing dedicated to his campers guy! Kevin is so passionate about his camp and it shows up everywhere
in this fun camp. Take a look at the camp pictures and they really do say 1000 words! The kids are all so happy! Kevin has the summer camp experience nailed.
We highly recommend ADC.

ADC is a total gem! My daughter has been going since she was 4 years old and CANNOT wait for summer to roll around every year so she can return and have a total blast. The staff know what they’re doing, they’re super fun and nice. She comes home the first day or two every summer wanting to be like her «campselor» and I think that is awesome! Imitation is the highest form of flattery, yes? :) ADC offers so much there really is something for every kid — sports (including rock climbing!), arts and crafts, canoeing/​kayaking/​sailing, horse back riding, swimming and so much more I can’t even list it all! They offer bus transpo for those who don’t live in or near Walnut Creek, which is super convenient for those families with 2 working parents. WE LOVE ADC!!!

My child has been going to Adventure Day since the summer after kindergarten. That was almost seven years ago! The camp is so well-​run — it’s fun, with lots of terrific activities, and warm, enthusiastic staff, but what really sets it apart is how well-​organized it is. Not only is the heart in the right place, the head is too! Two years ago, my niece, then 12 years old, came out for the summer and stayed with us and went to ADC. She’s shy, knew no one — and had a blast. As for me, I love the bus service. My child loves the bus (a real yellow school bus!!) and loves, loves, loves everything else — even now that he is almost a teenager.

My son LOVED ADC last summer so much so that I changed around his camp schedule so that he could go back to ADC for a second session. This summer, ADC was the only camp he wanted to go back to (the others were fine… but not didn’t inspire his loyalty and undying love).
Last summer, he had just finished K and loved taking the bus as well as the overnight camping trip… he can’t want to do it all again… along with horseback riding, swim lessons, rock climbing and much more.
UPDATE: 7÷12÷2001
My son, now almost 7, went again this summer to the first session and is about to start 3^rd session. His only disappointment is that his counselor from last year had taken a full time job (at Google, good for him!!). After a day or two, he loved his new counselor and was off to the races again! He is chomping at the bit to start again on Monday.

My sons, 14 and 10 now, have gone to ADC all but one summer since 2006. This year, my 14 year old will be a CIT! They have both loved all the campy activities, the spirit, now the beautiful new campus at 7 Hills, the friends they’ve made, and generally the whole feel of the place.
I’VE loved Kevin, who is a really down home guy, a pleasure to work with, and really just a big kid himself. The boys love him too, and with his energy and influence, the camp is staffed with energetic and smart young adults and teens, making for a wonderful summer for kids, at a price that doesn’t force you to take out a loan!

We moved here last year and since we were in a small temporary apt we needed a camp to get the boys out and to start their California life off on a positive note. They LOVED this camp. Now we have a house with a pool and lots of fun summer space but they still want to go back to ADC. They are so excited. Their favorite part of the three weeks is the sleep over night. I love the camp because all the kids seem to be SO genuinely happy there. Even the kids in charge seem to be having a blast. We have had no bullying incidents, which we had at a previous camp so that is great. And the busing is fabulous for me since we live way in Pleasanton. We take the bus from Dublin. Cant say a bad thing about the camp. You will not regret sending your kids here.

We’ve tried several camps and this is the first one that my daughter really really wanted to come back to. She spent two sessions last summer and had a great time, and is coming back with her little sister this year. Excellent supervision by trained adult counselors, and tons of fun activities to choose from.
