Sports camp fun continues all year long with School Days Off! School Days Off provides a similar experience for campers as P.A.S.S. Camp but instead in one-day camps on days when local schools are out of session.

During School Days Off, campers ages 5-11 have the opportunity to try multiple sports and activities in a fun, active environment while experiencing the NCAA Division I varsity fields, courts and rinks that the University of Denver Pioneers call home. Activities include basketball, soccer, rock climbing, ice skating, swimming, lacrosse and more. Specific camp schedules vary by day and are dependent on facility availability and weather conditions.

For more information about School Days Off, please contact our staff at 303-871-3845 or recreation@du.edu.
