Dear Parent,
As we get ready to start our 82nd year in business we want to thank you for being part of our extended camp family. In those years over 50,000 children from not only St. Louis, but also the United States as well the world have learned to how to swim in our incredibly unique camp. We owe so much of our longevity to those of you who come back year after year and spread the good word about Ackermann’s.
Starting in 2023 we are handling our enrollment process in a much different way than we have in previous years. We going to an online enrollment set up only at www.aspkirkwood.com. All the information and enrollment forms well be located there. Please remember if you want to enroll your children with friends you’re going to need to do it at the same time or as close as possible to insure that the space is available.
We pride ourselves on having only hired from within during our entire time in business, meaning that all of our counselors were former campers themselves or close family friends of people who went to camp for years. Like many small businesses though we are at times facing a staffing shortage so we ask for your help. If you know someone who is 15 years old or older please let them know what a rewarding and fun summer job working at Ackermann’s could be for them.
