Camp Director: Máire Clerkin

As we enter our 50th year, the UICC is more committed than ever to providing top-notch cultural programming opportunities, with special attention to youth as we build for the next generation of Irish Americans. Through the support of the Michael and Catherine Cremin Irish Cultural Fund we are delighted to present our 5th year of summer youth programming. We are delighted to welcome back the international creative force, Máire Clerkin, as Irish Camp Director. She is eager to work with a talented and diverse team of artists in a variety of activities and experiences for our Campers ages 8-16 years and a Junior Camp for the wee folk of 6–7-year-olds. With such variety, every Camper will discover new passions and find their way to shine!

The theme for Irish Camp 2025 is “Ireland’s Got Game” celebrating the sporting life in Ireland. From classic Irish sports of Hurling and Gaelic football to more solo sports like golf and fishing, young boys and girls will learn about the origins of Ireland’s enthusiasm for sports and what sustains it.

Maire Clerkin will lead a team of dedicated staff members and organize an energetic and enthusiastic program that encompasses various aspects of Irish music, dance, song, art through the lens of a broad spectrum of Irish sport and game. The program culminates in a student-created performance on the final night, which has delighted a packed house of supporters year after year.

Ages: 6-16
Dates: Mondays through Fridays June 9-27, 2025; offered in 3 1-week sessions
Final Performance: Friday June 27, 2025

Registration opens January 1, 2025.
