Durham Academy Summer 2026
Ages 4 to 18 | June 8–Aug. 7, 2026
Durham Academy has provided premier summer camp experiences for Triangle families since 1982 through Durham Academy Summer, and we're gearing up for our best summer yet!
DA Summer is an all-day summer camp experience that keeps campers close to home but feeling a world away as they gain independence and confidence.
With camps hosted at Durham Academy's 84-acre campus and state-of-the-art facilities, we have the space and resources to offer a range of camps that appeal to the interests of 4-year-olds to high school seniors. DA Summer camps grow minds and foster character, equipping campers with the tools to lead moral, happy and productive lives — this summer and beyond.
