Why Virtual Camp
Virtual or online camp is a great option to have your kids engaged in a group activity with the convenience of an easy commute to their gaming computer or device. Our virtual camps bring kids from all over the United States, Canada and even Europe. In turn, this gives your kids the opportunity to safely interact and make friends with other kids through the Game Gym community.
Why Combat Action Games
Campers have the choice of selecting from the games below to play during this week. During the registration process, campers select their 1st choice and 2nd choice games. Campers have the option of playing the same game all week or switching between multiple games.

Apex Legends is a free online multiplayer Battle Royale game where each character has a unique special ability to provide various play styles. Teamwork in Apex Legend is what differentiates you from coming out victorious. Campers will learn the importance of teamwork by working on skills such as effective communication, decision-making, and problem-solving.
Fortnite can seem daunting to most, but with our guidance and positive reinforcement, we will boost campers’ abilities, skills, and confidence in a fun and engaging way. Not only will campers’ game skills improve, but they will also build fundamental life skills such as teamwork, public speaking, and critical problem-solving.
