Barrie Day Camp

United States, Silver Spring

Overview

Welcome to the realm of childhood wonderment, where summer days are filled with exploration, adventure, and the pure joy of being a kid - welcome to Barrie Day Camp! Tucked away in the picturesque landscape of Silver Spring, this gem of a camp has been a staple of summer fun since 1956. Fondly remembered by many as the old Layhill "ranch", Barrie Camp now serves as a haven for youngsters eager to embark on an unforgettable summer journey. Imagine a place where kids can be kids, free to roam in the great outdoors, swimming in the cool waters, or mastering the art of Western-style horseback riding. The camp's lush fields, tranquil ponds, and whispering streams provide the perfect backdrop for a summer filled with spontaneous bouts of exhilaration. Facilities are aplenty here: a pool for those refreshing dips, riding stables for the young equestrians, and even a full-sized gymnasium and a black box theater for those who enjoy a bit of indoor fun. Barrie Day Camp is not just about fun and games though. For the older campers, the C/CIT program offers a chance to step into the shoes of leadership, learning essential skills while earning community service hours. It's a wonderful balance of fun and growth, of adventure and responsibility. At Barrie Day Camp, summer is what it's meant to be - a time to let loose, to explore, to learn, and most importantly, to create memories that will last a lifetime. After all, there's no better place to let summer be summer, and let kids be kids!
