ADVENTURE
Adventure Camp
Ages 6-12, one-week, two-week, and mini week sessions
This is our biggest camp!
​
Each morning, campers choose their morning elective. There is always a range of options to find something fun for everyone. Our "craft pack" offers electives around the arts and music. Our "Sports Pack" offers very active choices usually involving running on a field. Our "Wild Pack" offers choices involving exploring nature, our nature center, and/or critters.
​
Afternoons start with free time at the waterfront and then transition into cabin activities with your child's small group. We aim for cool engaging activities that help bring a cabin together and help foster friendship growth. Common cabin activities include team building, a nature center, tie-dye, target sports, pontoon lake explorations, and a horseback trail ride.
Evenings are spent with all the kids their age - having large group fun, from campfires to field games.
Mornings with Electives
Over a week, Adventure Campers will get to choose 5 different electives - 1 per morning. After breakfast, all of Adventure meets at Shady Grove next to the lodge to find out the day's elective offering. The below list is our base electives offered every week.
