Every summer, Campus Recreation is proud to offer a recreational day camp for the youth of the SFA and Nacogdoches communities.
The Little Jack Rec Camp program is a fun, recreational, motivational and educational adventure for children ages 5 to 12. Camp sessions are one week in length and structured like a normal day of regular school with campers moving through our facilities, participating in different programs throughout the day.
Sessions emphasize some core values of our department: teamwork, communication, sportsmanship and fun. All activities have a noncompetitive nature, and staff work with campers to improve basic skills used in most sports. The camp is non-sport specific, and activities are geared toward beginner and intermediate skill levels.
