Minis...

(2 1/2 to under 4 years) are our youngest campers. These children, who are able to use their own carefully sized restroom facilities, are organized into groups of ten to twelve campers. Their caring and nurturing staff members (a senior counselor and two junior counselors) are selected for their experience and understanding of the unique needs of young children. Minis are offered half-day or full-day programs filled with a variety of activities introducing these campers to a world of wonderful camp experiences. From sports and recreational activities to creative and learning experiences, we provide developmentally appropriate equipment and programming for these very special campers.

Midgies...

(4 to 5 years) which are at the next level of our camp program, are offered increased opportunities for growth and development as they more fully explore our program and facilities. Each energetic group of sixteen campers is provided with a senior counselor and two junior counselors who have demonstrated the skills needed to guide the children through fun-filled days. In the area of sports, games and other athletic activities, the campers are taught to work together as a team while building an ever increasing bank of skills in tennis, soccer, kickball and so much more. Under the guidance of specialist counselors, our creative arts, drama, cooking and computer programs offer age-appropriate activities to interest all campers.

Junior Camp...

(6 to 8 years) bunks are divided into groups of sixteen boys or girls under the supervision of a senior and junior counselor of the same gender. Recognizing the growing independence junior campers want and need, our program at this level includes opportunities to learn and practice problem solving, sportsmanship and decision-making. Participating in kickball league gives junior campers an initial experience working and playing with children of various ages, abilities and experience levels as well as learning to work with a different counselor in a coaching position. Junior Camp is a great time for learning to deal with a growing independence and the skills needed for increasing self-reliance.

Senior Camp...

(9 to 12 years) is an opportunity for graduating to a wide ranging choice of activities. Creative projects take on a new sophistication as campers experiment with various media including glazed and fired clay in the ceramics studio as well as constructing and finishing a selection of projects in wood shop. On the sports fields, campers continue to develop new skills and have more time to put into practice what they learn as they participate in inter-camp games, on sports teams and in the girls' newcomb and boys' sports leagues. As senior campers, boys and girls have many new privileges including using the go-karts an overnighter at camp and club choice on a weekly basis.

Counselor-in-Training (CIT)...

(13 and 14 years) is a learning and transition program for young people. CIT's, organized into groups of 15 boys or girls, experience the best of two worlds at camp. The counselors for these groups are chosen for their mature, yet youthful outlooks. A CIT day encompasses work experience, bunk activities including lunch and swimming, as well as sport and recreational periods. CIT's work with both specialists and bunks developing leadership and organizational skills. Daily bunk-time activites include co-ed games, group meetings and discussions, swim and water games as well as other recreational opportunities. As the oldest campers, CIT's are rewarded with day trips and after-hours activities supervised by their counselors and the camp directors.
