Camp Nugget provides small group instruction by university students studying for an Adapted Physical Education Teaching Credential, ensuring specialized support for children with and without disabilities.
Camp Nugget at California State University, Long Beach (CSULB) is a summer day camp for children ages 5-17, with and without disabilities. The program focuses on providing positive opportunities for children to engage in physical activity, games, sports, and aquatic experiences that may be limited in other programs. Activities include fundamental motor skills, health-related physical fitness, dance, cooperative games, adapted sports, and aquatics with swim instruction. Campers will improve their physical fitness, motor and sport skills, and swim ability, while also enhancing self-esteem, confidence, and social interaction skills. The camp aims to provide a positive, active, and fun experience in a supportive environment.
Instruction is provided by university students enrolled in the Kinesiology Department who are studying to receive an Adapted Physical Education Teaching Credential, under the supervision of CSULB faculty. This unique setup ensures a high level of expertise and individualized attention, with a low camper-to-staff ratio. The camp also offers a Junior Counselor program for young adults with disabilities (ages 18-21) to develop leadership skills.
A typical day includes a welcome and warm-up, team time, various stations for activities, snack time, and aquatics with recreational swimming and instruction.
This camp is ideal for children ages 5-17, with and without disabilities, who are looking for a supportive and inclusive environment to develop motor skills, physical fitness, and social interaction through adapted physical activities.
