Camp Program
Program
Campers spend their mornings in groups with their peers. In their groups, campers try the different programs at camp, led by expert staff with professional backgrounds in education, fine arts, athletics, and more. In the afternoons, campers design their own programming by choosing a program unit on which to focus their time. As campers progress through their years at camp, they are given more options to choose from.
