About Camp Globo

Camp Globo is a language immersion summer day camp for children entering grades k-5.  Immersion means that 90% of the time Spanish is used.  When English is used it is sandwiched between Spanish, so Spanish word – English translation –Spanish word.  We spend our days engaged in all sorts of fun camp adventures including water play, sports, crafts, and music.  At Camp Globo our leaders are referred to as guides instead of teachers or counselors. They are there to help guide children through fun activities in a new language. We refrain from using the title of teacher because we are not formally teaching our campers.  

   Camp Globo is offered in two-week sessions. We offer multiple sessions throughout the summer months.  Each session has a different theme and camp activities are based around that theme.  Our days are broken into four main sections: art, movement, focus, and music.  Children are exposed to repetitive and kinetic language use that will stimulate their brains and create a basis for a lifetime of fluency. 

   Camp Globo is in Stow, Ohio at the corner of Fishcreek Rd. and Stow Rd (inside Hickey Karate Center). We are minutes away from Hudson, Akron, and Cuyahoga Falls. Our facilities offer large indoor and outdoor space with access to a playground and sport fields as well as separate boys and girls locker rooms.
