Camp Activities
Morning activities take place within age groups (12 campers) so that activities are age-appropriate and are based on the theme of the week. Activities during this time block change each week giving something new even for the campers who are attending multiple sessions and returning from past summers.
Club Time is where campers choose the activity from 3-4 options. Club time options change each day but may include an active game, crafts, nature hikes, and cooking. Ages are mixed during this time block. Club time activities may or may not follow the theme of the week and will change each day.
Woods Time takes place every day and with all of camp together. Woods time takes place in a special place in the woods, giving campers the opportunity for free play using only natural materials. Following safety rules, campers will often build stick forts, make believe, and look for salamanders.
All Camp Activities will take place every week and are a highlight of the week! All camp activities include Hungry Forest, Quest Day, hay rides, and an end-of-week campfire to celebrate the week.
