Day Camp is another vital aspect in our camping program. Comprised of children ages 6-11 from the surrounding communities, the program runs Monday through Friday, 9am to 4pm. Every session, the children participate in a pre-scheduled overnight so that they too can experience the satisfaction and fun of rustic living.
Jr. Day camp is our smallest program serving 5 and 6 year olds from the surrounding communities. Jr. Day Camp is a very closely supervised program, which runs Monday through Friday, 9:30am to 2:30pm.
