Sleepaway Camp Katy Ranch- EN - La Llanada

Our purpose is to create experiences that stay #ForEver with our campers. For that, we create opportunities that allow them to grow in a safe and super fun environment, where positive human interactions and the design of our program enhance the best characteristics of their personality, distinguishing themselves as Llanada Campers. Each of our experiences has been intentionally designed to accompany their development in each stage, to this we have called the Camper’s Journey™.

In each stage of the Camper’s Journey™, our campers will be able to live a custom-designed experience according to their special characteristics, ages and different personalities, reaching their most important #milestones.

La Llanada is a feeling, a way of being and that is why we would like to invite you to be part of our #LlanadaFamily in any of our Llanada Experiences.

WHAT IS THE

sleepaway camp @katy ranch?

Designed for campers aged 7 to 10, this experience is definitely one of the best ways to experience nature while still in the city. This program has been intentionally designed as the transition between our #DayCampsLlanada and our Sleepaway Camp @Valley View, focusing on overcoming the challenge of that first separation, on friendship, and on bonding through campfire nights and contact with nature, living out an adventure every camper dreams of.

Sleepaway Camp @Katy Ranch is ideal for families who want their campers to explore a bit of independence but stay close to home and for a short period. It is also perfect for families who are not nearby Katy and find daily transportation to Day Camp challenging. Additionally, it’s an excellent option for our Day Camp KR campers who want to extend the fun at the place they already know and love, by staying overnight for 4 nights!

Where is Sleepaway Camp @Katy Ranch?

This program will be held at the facilities of our Camp at Katy Ranch, where campers will sleep 4 nights [from Monday to Friday] alongside our #StaffLlanada. This experience is perfect for staying close to home while creating friendship bonds and practicing their social skills.
The weeks of Sleepaway Camp @Katy Ranch begin on Monday morning and end on Friday afternoon [we will provide schedule details closer to summer]. Transportation is not provided, and parents are responsible for dropping off and picking up campers at our Katy Ranch location.
Where do the campers sleep?

At Katy Ranch, we have rooms with bunk beds where campers will sleep accompanied by members of the Llanada Staff. They will also enjoy the facilities and contact with nature sitting around the campfire at night. It will be the perfect environment for a spectacular experience.
Campers will be divided into girls and boys grouped by age and will sleep in different rooms with bunk beds and separate bathrooms.
What activities do campers do at Sleepaway Camp @Katy Ranch?

During the day, campers will engage in various typical camp activities such as archery, sports, crafts, experiments, camp games, and much more. They will also have time to swim and enjoy the pool [the swimming activity is always supervised by a lifeguard and our Llanada Directors].
But what makes Sleepaway Camp @Katy Ranch truly unique are the activities we do at night, under the starry skies, around special campfires where sometimes we sing, sometimes we make hot dogs and s’mores, and other times we simply enjoy being present, watching the fire, and living unforgettable moments with our new friends.
Is the camp in Spanish?

Our program is 100% in Spanish, although all our guides speak English if needed. All activities, games, and songs are conducted in Spanish, encouraging campers to practice it in a fun and pressure-free way. Additionally, our program highlights Latin customs and culture through the charisma of our #StaffLlanada, and seasonal themes.

What if they feel homesick?

Preparation before summer is key for campers to have the best experience. Being able to participate in this camp, especially for those campers sleeping away from home for the first time, is an achievement that fills us with pride as campers and makes us feel strong. Parents, please reinforce the positive aspects of the experience and encourage them to reach that feeling of satisfaction.
Feeling homesick during the week is normal, and our directing team is trained and prepared to help our campers and their parents manage it collaboratively and with open communication.
