CHISHOLM ADVENTURE & SOCCER DAY CAMP

Welcome to Adventure & Soccer Day Camp, an exciting and energetic experience for curious, active young players who love to move, play, and connect! Since 2015, Chisholm Elementary has been home to DC Way’s very first One Day Camp. This fall, it returns with a fresh energy and a theme that celebrates creativity, community, and soccer adventures. Our camp is more than just a drop-off; it’s a local experience designed for families who want their children to be active, engaged, and excited every single day.

At Adventure & Soccer Camp, every session is a new journey. Young athletes explore the joy of soccer, build friendships, and discover confidence through imaginative games, team challenges, and structured play – all in a safe, welcoming environment right in the heart of Capitol Hill!

What Makes Each Day Special

Every One Day Camp has its own unique theme, activities, and adventures to keep things fresh and exciting. Young athletes learn, play, and shine in different ways each time they join us:

  • Team Spirit & Connection: Ice-breakers, group games, and team challenges help campers build friendships and confidence from the start of the day.
  • Game IQ Challenges: Campers take on strategy-based games and “think like a pro” scenarios, with special recognition for smart plays and quick thinking.

  • Creative & Fun Themes: From silly style contests (wild socks, crazy hair) to themed games and challenges, children get to express themselves and celebrate imagination.

  • Skills & Speed Competitions: Players showcase their talents in shooting challenges, lightning games, and obstacle courses — with prizes for agility, effort, and improvement.
