Summer Cooking Camp 2026!

Summer Cooking Camp is back, and we’re so excited to cook and bake with your kids this summer! Our hands-on camps are designed to build confidence in the kitchen, spark creativity, and make cooking fun and approachable—whether campers are just getting started or already love to cook.

Each week includes a ton of baking alongside savory cooking projects, so campers get plenty of hands-on time with mixing, measuring, kneading, and decorating. Camp days also include built-in downtime with games, bead making, and creative crafts, giving kids a chance to relax, reset, and connect with friends between kitchen tasks.

We are currently building our parent portal, with camp registration will launch this Monday, March 16th, but it may be pushed if we need more time to ensure sign up goes smoothly.

The official launch date will be announced by email first.

Youth Cooking Camp is open to campers ages 8–14 only, with no exceptions.
This program focuses on foundational cooking and baking skills, kitchen safety, teamwork, and confidence-building in a supportive, encouraging environment. THIS IS THE RIGHT PLACE for 95% of kids who come to this camp. 

We’re thrilled to introduce Advanced, an advanced program for ages 10–14. This is for children that qualify. 

Advanced Cooking Camp is for those students who have been with my program for years and are ready to build on foundational skills, take on more independence in the kitchen, and dive deeper into techniques and recipes—with even more baking woven in.

• Offered all summer
• Very limited spots available
• For campers with at least 3 years experience with SLK or a year of afterschool cooking at SLK. 
• If you would like to see if your child can qualify there will be a cooking and baking online test available. If interested in the test please email me at thesilverlakekitchen@gmail.com
• Detailed Requirements coming soon

We will also be offering a Counselor-in-Training (CIT) Program for 14 & 15 year olds interested in leadership, mentorship, and supporting younger campers while continuing to grow their own cooking skills.

More details coming soon!
