Join us in a summer celebration of happy children. Always inspired by the true Olympic Spirit, we strive not only for skills, but also for determination, fair play and creativity. We uphold our 47-year-old commitment of personal accomplishments in every student, and are eager to share our passion for excellence with them. Within 11 age appropriate summer adventures we combine learning and play so every child can be a winner, and it truly would be our joy to show your child that the sky is the limit as we create another summer to be remembered.

We have uniqe programs for ages 3 ½ - 15 that have won awards for being Baltimore's Best. Most recently Maryland Family Magazine awarded us 2008 Best Summer Camp.

Our twelve acre private facility is conveniently located in Baltimore County on Falls Road between the Beltway two miles north of the city line. The Gerstung Center is an impressive 42,000 sq. ft., four story building filled with state of the art movement equipment, gymnastics apparatus, training devices, and resilient floors. Almost fully air conditioned, there are six studios for movement, dance, and fitness. There are party, lunch, and assembly rooms; as well as an art studio. Most of the indoor activities are conducted in the 6,000 sq. ft. main gym, featuring a 3,000 sq. ft. rock wall. In addition, the 5,500 sq. ft. Gymnastics Hall is equipped with an olympic sized spring floor and all apparatus for men’s and women’s gymnastics.

Outdoors, on 10 acres of wooded hillside terrain are walking trails with fitness training stops and team challenge stations. Tucked away in a safe corner on top of the hill is an archery range, and for those ever im-portant swimming lessons we con-structed a unique training pool in the woods with four different teaching stations that range from 2’ - 6’ in depth. We challenge our biking skills on the bike training terrain located on the “Summit Plateau” of “Copper Mountain,” while all ball handling skills are taught on the two uniquely located playing fields. Also, nestled in the woods, you can find the camp village cottages for the older groups around the amphitheater that is used for assemblies and performances; as well as a picnic area where lunch and group meetings take place.
