Here’s to the fun-loving people who love kids. The adventurers who stir up adventure for their campers. The ones who lead by example and help develop leaders. They have curious minds and inspire curiosity in those around them. They’re superstars who shoot for the stars, creating a one-of-a-kind camp experience. Here’s to our Fairmont Summer Team!
With the distinction of being accredited by the American Camp Association, Fairmont brings the level of experience and understanding of education you want for your child. Our team comes with an innovative, out-of-the-box way of thinking, which keeps things fresh and exciting at our summer camp. Every counselor has completed an extensive interview process (including fingerprinting and background checks with the Department of Justice and FBI) and comprehensive training (including CPR and first aid certification for summer camp directors, along with diversity and safety awareness training for all staff). No wonder Fairmont’s summer camp has been voted the best day camp in Orange County five times.
Take a moment and get to know the team!
