ATHLETIC CAMPS
We are proud to offer this summertime extension of the Priory athletic program, where young athletes learn the keys to success in sports and in their personal lives. Most of our sports camps are held on Priory’s beautiful 150-acre campus in west St. Louis County. Coaches emphasize the pleasure of playing each sport while developing athletic skills and good sportsmanship. We invite both boys and girls in grades one through 12 to explore their athletic potential and brush up on veteran skills or dive into a whole new sport.
