Join Discovery Deluxe
July 29 – Aug. 9
Discovery Deluxe is a longer, two-week version of Discovery Camp, featuring CLAW – or Camp Legends and Warriors. This is a cherished tradition at KSS, and when Color War ignites, the entire camp divides into five spirited teams with a unique color and team identity. Campers and counselors come together to participate in a diverse range of thrilling challenges.

KSS programs use local trails as outdoor classrooms to provide students with hands-on learning experiences. Our classroom is the forest, streams, and alpine tundra where students can be outside and adventuring.
