Summer Camp

The Albany Police Athletic League (PAL) in Albany, New York, offers a dynamic summer camp program designed to engage youth ages 5 to 12 in a variety of activities that promote physical fitness, creativity, and community involvement. The camp operates at Albany PAL, located at 844 Madison Avenue, Albany, New York.

The program runs Monday through Friday, from 8:15 AM to 5:30 PM, beginning June 30 through August 28. Please note: we are closed on July 4.

We provide daily breakfast, lunch, and a snack. Campers receive three PAL T-shirts, a water bottle, and access to all daily activities and special clubs—such as arts and crafts, karate, and dance—at no additional cost. We also offer six field trips, free of charge, and wrap up the program with a final Family Camp Fun Day and Picnic, where every child receives a back-to-school backpack filled with essential school supplies.

We offer a flexible payment scale based on what best fits your family’s needs.

We also accept DSS Child Care assistance with an open case.
