Freedom, NH
There is something for every kind of creator at Cody. Campers can explore painting, arts and crafts, pottery, jewelry making, metalsmithing, glassworking, fiber arts, and woodworking. Creativity also extends beyond the art studio. Campers can express themselves through dance, drama, improv, and music, whether they are learning something new or building on a talent they already love.

As the second eldest group, Inters practice helpfulness and are attentive to the feelings of others. They are in a unique and essential position to foster community and enrich the family-style environment at Cody.
Seniors are mature enough to foster belonging in the Cody community and practice gratitude. With their division leaders, they strive to maintain an inclusive environment founded on acceptance, patience and solidarity. Through modeling these positive attitudes, they exude this openness to the younger divisions, making the Cody family even stronger.
In addition to the meal being served that day, campers can choose from our pasta bar, sandwich station, salad station, pizza station, and chicken fingers. Having so many options is especially helpful for selective eaters. Campers can stick with something familiar while still having plenty of opportunities to try new foods throughout their session. Favorites like Taco Tuesday, soft serve ice cream, and slushies are always something campers look forward to.
Our cabins sit on the southeastern lakeside edge of the White Mountain National Forest in New Hampshire, each housing about seven campers and three counselors. All of our cabins have electricity, fully-equipped bathrooms, and ample cubby room for belongings. Cabin mates work together to maintain the cabin, learning important life skills that contribute to their growth and independence. Bunk buddies will eat in the Dining Hall side-by-side, compete in color wars together, and go on lively outdoor adventures. From board games during rest hour to overnight white-water rafting trips, cabin mates share rewarding daily experiences that develop friendships unlike any others.
Adventurous campers have the opportunity to paddle down Bear Camp River, play at a natural waterslide in the Great North, zipline at Cranmore Resort, and more! Campers looking for mountain adventures can look forward to hikes on Mount Washington, Mount Adams, Mount Lafayette, and in the Mahoosuc Range. We also offer mountain biking trips along local trails and rock climbing and bouldering at the world-famous crags in Rumney, NH. Campers who love the water can go white water rafting in the White Mountain National Forest with friends or canoe, kayak, and camp along the Saco, Pemigewasset, and Androscoggin Rivers.
The skills teens develop through the program can help prepare them for college, future jobs, volunteer opportunities, sports teams, and other leadership roles. They also gain meaningful experience working with children and being part of a team, giving them real examples of responsibility, collaboration, and problem-solving to draw from in the future. But perhaps the most important lesson is understanding what it feels like to make a difference for someone else.
At ages 16 and 17, our Teen Leadership Program gives participants the chance to experience camp from a new perspective. Our Counselors in Training, or CITs, live together as a close-knit group and begin exploring what it means to be a leader within the camp community. They have opportunities to assist in activities that interest them, work alongside experienced counselors and coaches, help teach skills, and take on additional responsibilities throughout camp. Rather than simply being told how to lead, CITs get to practice it.
