Thanksgiving and Winter Break Camps in SLO County
Posted by San Luis Obispo Mom on Sunday, September 19, 2021 Under: For Kids
If your kids are like mine, they usually crave to get more active by the 3rd day of any consecutive break. A few hours a day at a half day break camp can really help them have a more exciting break and still have time to relax at home.
There's a few regular places around the county that usually run break camps year round. Here's a list of places that I've found so far for 2025 that offer both Thanksgiving and Winter Break Camps. Usually in November, a selected organizations will post Thanksgiving Break offerings and then wait some time later to post the December Break camp information.

As a mom, I want to caution you about this place so I recommend googling "Central Coast Gymnastics" under the News section as something happened earlier this year in 2023. Please do some research, then make your decision. More details.

Originally from San Diego, California, I'm a San Diego State University alumna, veteran's wife and mom of two kids who were born two years apart. After living on the East Coast for 6 years, we now reside in San Luis Obispo County and here, the exploration continues. In between work and momming it, I like to exercise.
