Summer Adventure is a state-licensed day camp sponsored and hosted by Black Rock Congregational Church in Fairfield, Connecticut. Founded in 1976, the camp exists to offer children a safe, active summer of friendships and fun, while seeking to develop quality of character and personal faith. Campers can look forward to a variety of activities that will make each day a unique and memorable summer experience. After morning activities, the camp travels to a new destination each day, from beaches, to museums, to zoos, to theaters, boats and amusement parks, just to name a few! Special activity days are typically held once a week, such as carnivals, water games day, Olympics day or Christmas in July.
