Overnight Summer Camp

Beginning with a ‘welcome to camp’ opening ceremony on Sunday and concluding with an awards ceremony on Friday, our six-day sleepaway summer camp program sends campers home with memories and friendships that will last a lifetime!

Activities include:

  • Horseback riding
  • Swimming
  • Arts & Crafts
  • Dance Night
  • S'mores
  • Archery
  • Rock wall climbing
  • Games
  • Talent show
  • High ropes (older campers)
  • Canoeing
  • Nature exploration
  • Slip n' slide
  • Campfires
  • And many more!

Campers are placed into co-ed activity groups according to age and request. Activity groups stay together throughout the day participating in various activities together and sharing meal times. We provide all campers specialized equipment needed to camp out, canoe, climb, explore the beautiful ecosystem, negotiate the ropes course, and ride horseback. We are  ACA accredited so we adhere to the highest standards for safety, operations, and program quality.
