Traditions & shared moments

Counselor–camper relationship — the campfire moment

Camp life provides the opportunity for a kind of intensity in relationships which rarely exists in our world. As a member of the camp staff, you have the unique opportunity to come to know the youngsters in your cabin as few others, including their parents, ever see them. It's at those kinds of moments when campers share something of themselves, as the two of you sit by the campfire and look at the starry sky and talk of life's great issues. Those are the moments that can make all the difference.

Green and White day — two-week session tradition

During the two-week sessions, campers will have an opportunity to participate in the ever-popular Green and White day where each camper is put on a team and play games against one another. It's a great chance to practice teamwork skills, sportsmanship, and try new activities.

Independence, growth & leadership

Resident camp — camper-designed schedule, independence, varied interests

Our Resident camp program allows campers to tailor their schedule to meet their individual preferences. If you love sports and staying active you can fill your day with soccer, tennis, football, hiking, and swimming lessons. Or if you want to gain horsemanship skills, you can spend most of your day down in the barn learning to ride and care for horses. If you prefer more skill-based activities such as arts and crafts, archery, or riflery: you will have plenty to keep you busy.
