Heaps of fun on No-School Days!
ACES stands for:
Activities Create Excitement on No-School Days!
ACES day camps are hosted on no-school days for the Corvallis school district that OSU is still in session. Each day is filled with a broad range of activities, from interactive classes to gymnastics and team games, like a miniature day of KidSpirit Summer Day Camp! From bowling, basketball and gymnastics, to cooking, arts & crafts, campus field trips and more, there's a time slot to excite every child on an ACES day!
Whether your child is a budding artist, athlete, or scientist, we have a day of learning and fun ready for all! ACES gives your child a chance to grow in a safe place, build positive friendships, and engage in stupendously fun activities led by our passionate KidSpirit staff. We can't wait to see you!

Frequently Asked Questions
KidSpirit ACES Days
Check-in and check-out takes place in the backyard of Langton Hall (the grassy bark mulch area between Langton, Waldo Hall and Goss Stadium). If you can't find us, come to the KidSpirit Office in Langton 125 for help. If you need to pick up a camper early, please call us ahead of time, and we'll have your child in the KidSpirit office for early check-out.
Note:
Anyone picking up a child must be on their authorized check-out lists and must present a valid physical photo ID at check-out. Authorized pick-ups have their name on the child’s list of guardians, emergency contacts or additional check-outs.
Children should bring a backpack with a water bottle, snacks, a sack lunch if staying for lunch, and sunscreen if necessary. Since all children get the chance to participate in gymnastics at our ACES days, please try to send your child in athletic clothes without buttons, zippers and metal, to protect our equipment. Long hair should be pulled back and jewelry should be removed. Wear close toed shoes.
Note: We do not allow electronic devices (phones, video games, etc.).
