Kidcam Oak Mountain State Park

200 Terrace Drive, Pelham, AL 35124

Limited Enrollment for 2021

At this time, we are planning again for a limited capacity at Kidcam for 2021 due to ever-changing Covid 19 guidelines. Please make sure you purchase at least the first 3 weeks you need camp. Given the potential limited space, we will close weeks once capacity is met for any given week. Only purchased weeks are guaranteed a spot for the summer. This is subject to change at any time, and we will monitor state guidelines and adjust protocol as needed.

Kidcam Summer Camp @ Oak Mountain

For campers entering Kindergarten through age 13, Kidcam Summer Day Camp thrives in the heart of Alabama’s Oak Mountain State Park.

Camp Director, Lissa Walker, says, “Kidcam at Oak Mountain is a very unique summer camp. Campers get to utilize the whole park for various activities. During the summer, you can find our campers on the trails exploring, swimming in the lake, visiting the petting farm, paddle boating or at the Wildlife center learning about native birds in Alabama.”

Kidcam offers 10 weeks of summer fun with all the best activities offered at Oak Mountain State Park. Full summer and weekly camp sessions are available online now for registration. Purchase only the weeks you need and build your summer around you!

Our Home Base is the air-conditioned Oak Room near Main Park Office.

Daily Shuttle Transportation

We will have morning drop off at a convenient location at the front of the park off of the 119 entrance at the Ranger Station. This will allow parents a more convenient in-and-out when dropping off their campers each morning.

We are working with our transportation team to determine a morning pickup time from the back entrance of the park closer to 280. A pickup time, between 7:45a-8a each morning, will pickup from this entrance.

Afternoon pickups, and aftercare, will all take place from the Oak Room Home Base inside the park.

Weekly Themes & Fieldtrips

Summer Theme Party Like a Rockstar
Weekly Themes Kidcam’s engaging weekly themes are action-packed with activities that promote fun, fitness, friendship, and creativity each week of camp. “The Spirit of Summer” celebrates all that makes Kidcam’s 46 years GREAT. Campers will enjoy a different theme each week, while still incorporating their daily choice of activities ranging from Sports, Arts, STEM, Specialty & Water Play. This allows campers to choose between a variety of new programs, activities and challenges led by their camp counselors. Weekly schedules & any field trips will be posted online no later than the Friday prior to each week a camper attends.

Camp Staff

Director I have been the Kidcam Oak Mountain summer director for four summers, since the camp first started in Oak Mountain. I have been a Physical Education teacher for 26 years; the last 10 years at Liberty Park Elementary, and a coach at Vestavia Hills High School.
I’m an avid triathlete and three-time Ironman finisher and certified lifeguard. Working and teaching children is my passion. I look forward to another great summer at Kidcam OMSP hiking, swimming and bringing the spirit of summer to life for your campers! |
Assistant Director Coming Soon
Camper to Counselor Ratio 10:1 With camper safety as the cornerstone of our program, the camp staff consists of certified teachers, outstanding college students and responsible and energetic teenagers. Once hired, the Kidcam staff goes through a rigorous training program in preparation for the first day of camp.

Payment Options, Weekly Transfer & Refunds

Payment Options Payment options include paying weekly or in advance for discounts. We accept, cash, check and all major credit cards. If paying tuition weekly, tuition must be paid no later than 3pm on the Friday prior to the week you are attending camp. A $10 late will be assessed after 3pm on Fridays and the sibling discount is no longer active.
Transfer Weeks Kidcam has a no refund policy on all fees paid after May 23rd. Tuition paid weekly is due no later than Monday morning at drop-off, and all weekly balances for food and after-care must be paid in full on Friday at the time of pick-up. A $10 charge will be incurred on any weeks transferred after May 9th, as well as any unpaid balances at the end of a week. Discounts only apply when payments are made online and prior to a child arriving at camp. Weekly transfers can be made only towards the payment of another week (not food or aftercare), and there are no transfers made against full summer session purchases. Email a transfer request to summersrock@kidcamcamps.com
