New Summer Camp in Middle Village for 2027
We heard you, Queens. This summer, Camps ‘R’ Us is opening our very first New York City campus: a summer camp in Middle Village, hosted at Our Lady of Hope Catholic Academy.
For 35 summers, our family-owned, ACA-accredited day camp has helped kids make friends, try new things, and come home happy (and a little tired). Our mission has always been simple: build better qualities in kids. Now we get to share that with a whole new neighborhood through our summer camp in Middle Village, and we couldn’t be more excited.
Ends December 31, 2026
Early Bird Savings for Our Lady of Hope Families
Our Lady of Hope Catholic Academy families can save with Early Bird pricing when they enroll by December 31, 2026. Reserve your child’s spot now for our very first summer in Middle Village.
Why Middle Village? It Already Feels Like Home
For the Turnier family, opening in Middle Village is a homecoming of sorts. Jason’s cousins grew up just down the road in Glendale and went to Christ the King High School, so these streets have been part of our story for a long time.
Our camp family has roots here, too. Many of our current and former Staff Members teach and work in schools across Middle Village, Ridgewood, Forest Hills, and Elmhurst. That means the faces your child sees at camp this summer may already be familiar ones.
We’re also grateful to the Our Lady of Hope community for welcoming us. Hosting our summer camp in Middle Village at a neighborhood school is exactly what Camps ‘R’ Us is all about: a safe, familiar place close to home, filled with summer fun.
