Summer Camp and Lowell Families

Scholarships and Financial Aid Information


The Lowell school system is dedicated to the developmental and intellectual needs of students and in providing a student-centered curriculum in which a child can grow in a warm, caring environment.  Our summer camp is dedicated to providing children and teens a creative and accepting learning environment that allows kids to directly interact with characters and creatures from the myths, history and legends of various cultures.  As well, our campers learn about science, literature, math, and foreign languages, in an exciting, dynamic story that lasts all summer long.

Guard Up, Inc. Summer Camps have a number of Scholarships available to Lowell families based on financial need. Our company is committed to assisting as many kids as possible in their quest to experience their own educational adventure at our Summer Camps.

About Our Camps: Guard Up’s Wizards & Warriors Summer Camps is an interactive adventure camp for kids ages 6 and up.  Kids use foam swords and play the role of a hero in a medieval fantasy setting.  This coed camp is located on nearly 300 acres of woodland with its own lake in Westford MA.  The NERF Zombie Camp is a futuristic camp at the same location where kids ages 8 and defend the camp from zombies with NERF Blasters, while solving mysteries. 

Both camps use dynamic story lines, theatrical costumes, and special effects to create an educational and exciting environment where campers’ actions decide the outcome of the story.  Campers learn how to apply the hero code of “Honor, Courage, and Compassion” during each adventure where they interact with creatures and characters born of literature, history and mythology from around the world.  But the education doesn’t stop there… ALL of our camp counselors are teachers or Masters of Ed. College Students who integrate academics into every aspect of camp.  IE: In “Potion Making Class”, campers learn about basic chemistry.  When casting scroll spells, kids must first learn Latin.  And our woodland Rangers lead the campers on adventures where they learn about earth science and conservation.

This camp is perfect for kids and teens who love computer games, myth and legends, or sci-fi/fantasy books and movies, and yet also crave the ability to be an active part of the mystery and intrigue.  This summer, Guard Up wants to help Lowell kids run around in the fresh air, make friends, and be a hero.
