YOUR WORLD

Know a villager who would love the Concordia Language Villages experience but is not quite ready for an overnight camp? Adventure Day Camp is the answer! Campers are served culturally appropriate lunches (and snacks!) and get to take advantage of all the summer camp activities while rejoining their families in the evenings.

Parents or families who travel for their children to attend often stay close by in one of Bemidji’s hotels, lodges or campgrounds. Lake Bemidji State Park is conveniently located just a few miles from the Concordia Language Villages entrance and is an excellent option for taking advantage of an authentic North Woods experience.

Monday through Friday 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Lunch is provided.

Availability in Day Camp programs is determined by total number of participants, not male or female capacity. There may be some discrepancies with the automatic availability tracker. Please note that you are registering for a session that takes place on our Main Site. Between June 10-July 13, two different sites will be hosting El Lago Del Bosque programs. Our Main Site is the permanent home of the Spanish Village and is the larger of the two sites in terms of both size and capacity, featuring traditional Spanish architecture and a large central plaza. Full descriptions of both sites can be found at https://www.concordialanguagevillages.org/languages/spanish#Location-1
