DAYCATION (‘da-‘ka-shen) = a time when students are able to vacation from routine life!
The anticipation of summer can quickly turn into sighs of "I'm bored!" as kids fall into their annual out-of-school routines. Daycation offers kids -- and parents -- a great alternative to doing the same ol' thing in the months ahead.
With fun activities for all ages and interests, Daycation is one of the most robust summer day camp programs in the Houston area. No wonder kids come back year after year! And, parents enjoy the convenient location and affordable rates, too.
Daycation fills up each year before school lets out. Register soon before your desired weeks are full!

Applications
Applications will be accepted through March and interviews will take place through February and March. However, Daycation staff will be chosen throughout the spring, so the sooner you turn in your application, the better your odds are that there will still be a position available.
