Get ready for a summer where characters come to life! This summer, Summer TLC invites kids to explore a animated-inspired day camp packed with imagination, creativity, discovery, and fun!
Summer TLC is a summer day camp serving the Saddleback Valley and surrounding communities. Summer TLC is held each summer, Monday through Friday, from 7:00am to 6:00pm for children entering first grade through sixth grade.

Each day is filled with game-inspired activities like indoor and outdoor challenges, creative arts and crafts, hands-on experiments, STEM exploration, dress-up theme days, special events, on-site assemblies, interactive shows, exciting attractions, and field trip excursions. Power up your summer and join us for a camp experience where every day is a new level to conquer!
