Our doors are wide open for young campers whose idea of fun on a no school day is immersing themselves in creative work!

We'll provide your child with the tools and the support they need to take an idea from creation to completion.

 

Program Walkthrough

BitSpace is committed to your child's safety. We start each camp with extensive safety and awareness training.

Campers will start each day with a group skill-building exercise to learn new skills or hone existing ones.

Group design challenges turn a free day into an adventure! Team up, think outside the box, and have a blast tackling fun, creative tasks with new friends.

Lunch is at noon every day; if the weather's nice, we'll go to the playground at Gross Park.

Each camper is expected to participate in a Bit Space-wide cleanup at the end of the day.

⚠️ Updated Safety Guidelines

To make camp both fun AND safe for everyone, we've updated our health and safety practices:

Masking During Specific Activities
While we've relaxed general mask requirements, masks will be used during high sawdust activities for additional safety. They help protect campers from airborne particles and dust in the workshop.

Health Monitoring
If your child has a cough or cold symptoms, they will be asked to wear a mask at camp for the safety of all participants. In the event of visible illness symptoms at camp, parents will be expected to pick up their child.

No Vaccination Proof Required
We no longer require proof of vaccination for participation. However, we encourage everyone to follow the latest health guidance to ensure the well-being of all campers and staff.
