Golf Camp:
Mermaid Country Day camp is excited to introduce our Golf Camps. Taking advantage of our 9 hole, par 3 course, MCDC is offering a great opportunity for campers to learn and develop their Golfing skills.
Campers learn the fundamentals of golf, enjoy games and contests, and also use the 9 hole course to fine tune their game. Campers will be taught specific skills such as grip, set-up, full swing, pitching, chipping, and putting. They are also taught the rules of the game, golf course etiquette, and the “mental game”- thinking their way around the course.
Golf Camps are half day sessions in the mornings, 9am - 12noon, $250.00 per week. Campers also have the option of staying for Day Camp in the afternoon and enjoying activities such as swimming, arts and crafts, athletics and much more. Half day, afternoon Day Camp, 12noon - 3:30pm, $200.00 per week. The programs are designed for children 7-16. Enrollment is limited. For information call 610-275-6014. Dates: June 27 - Aug 5
