Bellevue also provides day camps during non-school weeks in December, February and April. Camp offerings include a wide range of activities from traditional sports (basketball, soccer, tennis) to specialized camps such as art, drama, dance, outdoor adventure, equestrian and skateboarding.

Many camps provide a theme week where activities and events reflect a specific area of focus. Camps are separated by age groups, primarily serving elementary and middle school ages. Most camps are located at Bellevue Parks facilities. All city-operated camps promote healthy lifestyles and have nutrition standards for snacks.
