Well-known STEM Summer Day Camp Franchise in the Dallas area with 2,500+ campers across 12 camp locations. This is a turn-key operation that is already preparing for summer 2025.

These summer camps are extremely sought-after by area parents and there are typically 700-1,000 campers on waitlists each year, hoping to get a spot in a camp. The camps are for children ages 4-13, and there are 39 different weeklong camp themes for children to select from. Camp themes cover topics such as biology, chemistry, paleontology, robotics, coding, programming, veterinary medicine, and many more!

Franchise territory is expansive and includes all affluent zip codes in Dallas, TX and many northern suburbs (Plano, McKinney, Frisco, Prosper, Wylie etc). Summer Camp season operates for 6 weeks with a staff of about 100 part time camp directors, counselors, and support staff. One full-time employee (Director of Operations) is in place and has been trained on all key protocols of the brand. Summer camp locations are short-term leases as schools, churches etc or are vendor partnerships.

The brand also offers materials and support for many other revenue streams, if franchisee desires: STEM After School Programs, Elementary School Science Nights, In-School Field Trips, Community STEM Event tables etc.

The purchase includes an extensive amount of fixtures & supply inventory located in Richardson, TX. Major brand-wide tech updates in 2024 include digital check-in/check-out feature for camps, along with a branded App for parents to use for registration, messaging, and camper photos.

Competition
Excellent quality summer day camps centered on STEM topics are in high demand in the Dallas area, especially as the metroplex explodes in growth with STEM minded families. Many families are dual income families where full-time childcare is required for school age children during the summer months. Because of this, our camps start accepting registrations in December of each year, and typically are approaching capacity by April/May of the following spring. No other competitor offers the breadth of camper ages and variety of themes that this brand does.
Growth & Expansion
There is a multitude of expansion opportunities in the area- there is no limit on the number of camp locations that can be added each summer. The number of camp weeks, and/or the number of classes offered each week, at each current camp location, can also be increased to maximize revenue. Franchisee can also offer as many supplemental programs as desired, which offers revenue during the off season and also increases brand awareness to increase summer camp customer base. Current email database of current/past summer camp parents is 12,000+.
Support & Training
40 hours of support to assist with transition, plus unlimited support from Franchisor and network of national franchisees. One key employee (Director of Operations) is well versed in the brand vision and protocols (was a summer employee for ~10 yrs, and has been the full-time Director of Ops since 6/1/23).
