When we think about summer camp, a few different activities come to mind: Basketball, soccer, football, and many other sports make up a typical summer camp. Campers of all skill levels attend to learn more about their sport of choice and leave with exciting memories.
However, there’s more to summer camp than just sports.
Enter Future Stars Magic Day Camp!
Future Stars Magic Camp is a perfect opportunity for those who want a fulfilling camp experience but want more than just sports and outdoor activities. Let’s dive into some of the specifics.
What is Magic Camp?
The Future Stars Magic Summer Camp is as the name suggests: A camp where children between the ages of 7 and 15 will learn different magic-related skills, tricks, and illusions.
The camp director, Gary Ferrar, brings years of experience in both teaching and performing magic to the program. His career in magic has led him to perform in various venues, from Nickelodeon to America’s Got Talent.
On top of learning up-close magic tricks of the trade, campers will also perform a magic and illusion show at the end of each session.
Magic Camp Skills and Activities
Future Stars Magic Camp will have campers participating in a variety of magic-related activities to learn fascinating magic skills, including:
- Card tricks
- Improv skills
- Street magic
- Coin magic

- Historical magic
Magic camp won’t have campers holed up inside the entire time either. There will be swimming activities and outdoor field days to give children an opportunity to exercise and get away from the classrooms for a little while.

Future Stars Magic Summer Camps Offer Something Different for Campers
Children have vastly different interests and passions. We understand that not all children want to attend camp solely to play different sports.
That’s what makes our magic camp so unique. It gives campers a chance to meet new like-minded people and form connections while pursuing a brand new passion.
We have prepared a Camp Comparison Checklist that makes it easier to compare your summer camp options in one place. Track costs, program activities, dates, locations, and more, so that you can make informed decisions about your children's summer activities and enrichment.
