Summer Camps
At Virginia Outside, we believe summer should be spent outside—discovering, exploring, learning, and growing. Since 2005, our mission has been to introduce kids to the joys of nature and outdoor adventure. Whether your child is casting their first fishing line, pedaling through forest trails, trying their hand at fly-fishing, or simply spending a week immersed in fresh air and fun—our camps are designed to spark curiosity, build confidence, and create lifelong memories.
Our day-camp program offers six distinct experiences, each tailored to specific age-ranges and interests, so every camper finds the right level of challenge, excitement, and discovery. Below you can dive in to explore the full details of the one that fits your child best.

Why Choose Virginia Outside?
Gear & Equipment Provided: We supply fishing rods, tackle, bikes, helmets, life‐jackets—and you bring the attitude and sense of adventure.
Expert & Passionate Staff: Our counselors are outdoor educators, anglers, cyclists, and nature guides who bring enthusiasm and safe instruction to every moment.
Small-Group Focus: Many of our camps maintain low counselor-to-camper ratios so each child learns skills, receives attention, and builds confidence.
Progressive Skill Building: From Young Adventurers up to Fly Fishing, our camps allow children to grow, revisit, and advance their outdoor abilities year-to-year.
Unforgettable Week Outside: This isn’t just “sit on the playground.” We transport campers to rivers, ponds, trails, and bike parks—so every day is new, active and full of discovery.
