H2O’s Summer Service Camp is a community service oriented day camp for Lakewood residents entering seventh, eighth, or ninth grade. Sessions typically last about ten days, and multiple sessions are held throughout the school summer break.
Trained high school and college-aged staff counselors mentor and guide the younger participants in a series of team-building activities, hands-on service projects in the Greater Lakewood area, and educational experiences.

The camp day begins and ends in the Cafetorium at Garfield Middle School. Campers can enter through the “flagpole door” on the south west corner of the building, facing Detroit.
Campers should wear clothing that allows for activity; we have game time every day, including the first day of camp. Closed-toed shoes that do not slip on a gym floor are a must for every day of camp, right from the start. Campers will know if they need special clothing for a service site or activity after the first day. As a rule, though, gym shoes and clothes for activities are a must.
By completing this form, you will be added to a list to receive information as it is available, including dates of camp sessions and a link to register when it is open. We plan to have this information available in early March with registration opening shortly afterward.
Camp participation is open to youth going into 7th-9th grade in Fall 2027 and limited to Lakewood residents. Campers may register for one session per summer.
