Hofstra Sports Academy Camp is for campers whose interests are strictly athletic, and are supervised by Hofstra's well-known, NCAA coaching staff; train with the best! For children entering second through 12th grades, we offer sports academy camps in co-ed baseball, girls' basketball, boys' basketball, boys' lacrosse, softball, soccer, dance and cheer camps. In both camps, our goal is to assist in the development of the whole child-educationally, athletically, artistically, and socially. Hofstra Summer Camps combine the excitement of our wide-ranging curriculum with the professionalism of our distinguished and caring instructors.
Specialty campers choose one specialty each two-week session. Campers may participate in the specialty camps for two, four or six weeks.

Thomas School of Horsemanship Summer Day Camp
Coed horsemanship day camp
Thomas School Summer Day Camp is a small camp filled with 65 years of tradition. At TSH we facilitate children learning life long skills such as responsibility, compassion, gentle communication, teamwork and the joys of success through interactions with horses and quality staff. Boys and girls from 3 years old to 15 year olds participate in daily horseback riding lessons, horse care lessons, and a stable period for the older campers. In addition to the full horsemanship program, campers enjoy daily swim lessons, and choose from a variety of sports and arts, such as tennis, gymnastics, soccer, lacrosse, basketball, archery, dance and drama.
The unique teen program draws a great group of teens who would rather be with horses than travel every day. Often these teens have their sights on becoming a camp counselor.
Many campers make it a year round activity by continuing riding lessons throughout the school year. Horses become a way of life for these children. The camp is being directed by Nancy Thomas, who is the 2nd generation owner-director. Not only are new families joining every year, but many children and grandchildren of past campers are experiencing the joys that their parents remember.
