About Our Camp:
For over 40 years, Archbishop Shaw has provided a quality summer camp based on Catholic and Salesian values to the boys and girls of the Westbank. Our team of veteran teachers and coaches focus on helping the campers develop socially, emotionally, spiritually and physically.
Campers choose the activities each week that they want to participate in. With a plethora of choices including swimming in our enormous pool, dancing, cooking, arts & crafts, frisbee, dodgeball, flag football, baseball, T-ball, game room, soccer, kickball, and many more, there is always something fun and engaging for every camper. We are constantly looking for new activities to engage our campers even more!
Our goal as a camp is to provide more than just an athletic experience: we want to be a family for each camper. Our group activities, weekly awards, daily prayer and Mass all focus on helping to make our camp and home for every person that walks through our doors.
We can’t wait to feature your son or daughter in our weekly newsletters about all the great things happening at Archbishop Shaw’s Summer Camp.
