With over 80 years of experience, Congressional Camp prides itself on the wide variety of programs offered for campers ages 4 to 14. Click the link below to browse all of our camps or scroll to learn more about specific programs.

Day camp is a traditional favorite with activities like sports, horseback riding, archery, arts, ziplining, and taekwondo operating on a 3-day rotating schedule. Daily swimming in our newly renovated pools complete with a diving board, slide, and splash pad is among our most popular activities. Campers are sure to come home every day tired, a little bit messy, and full of fun adventures to share about!

Great Adventures is a uniquely designed program for our youngest campers who will be entering Junior Kindergarten (Pre-K) or Kindergarten. This program is based out of our Little School Building and features similar age-adjusted activities to our Day Camp. Great Adventures campers will swim daily in our kids’ pool and splash pad, ride miniature horses, and participate in nature walks, art, science, cooking, and more.

Our Specialty Camps are designed to allow for greater exploration into favorite activity areas. In the past, popular offerings have included Pony Camp, Congo Chefs, Engineering and many more.

Summer Academy is the newest addition to our program lineup debuting in 2020. These offerings are academic focused and provide daily small group instruction for one hour during the camp day. A variety of courses are available including reading, math, foreign language, and STEM.

Campers may be enrolled in Summer Academy and Day Camp simultaneously.

For those seeking adventures outside of our campus, check out Travel Camp! These camps depart daily for adventures and excursions in the DC area. Past trips have included water parks, museums, laser tag, bowling, and many more.

We don’t have enough words of gratitude to express what the Congo Camp staff did for our two children this summer. It’s a true blessing and gift for us to have a place like Congo Camp where we can send both of our kids and know they’re going to have an amazing time under watchful eyes.

Emily

The most well rounded, fun for all, summer camp! My daughter couldn’t wait to go each day and wanted to stay longer in the afternoon if she could.

Amy

Congressional camp is amazing! My kids love it there and are excited to go every day and the staff is exceptional. For a working parent, the hours and options for the full summer are perfect.

Danielle

My daughters look forward to Congo every summer. When we pick them up from a long day of camp, they are full of joy, stories, and smiles!

Congo Camp is the absolute best! You definitely get what you pay for — extended pick up and drop off times; tons of activities for campers including swimming and pony rides; and a safe campus environment. Our daughter comes home exhausted but happy every day!

Jill

Our favorite camp experience hands down! Such a terrific experience for both our 9 and 7 year old kids. They immediately asked to go back next summer!

Jennifer

Congo camp really made my son’s summer enjoyable, engaging, and fun! He had so many stories to share that from pick up to bed time he talked non stop about camp.

Linh

This camp is a slam dunk. Easiest camp on the parents, great value, and my highly-opinionated seven year old had a blast!

Anna

My kids had a blast at Congressional Camp! Camp ended a week ago and they haven’t stopped asking when they can go back.
