"I learned that I am more of the ourdoorsey, rugged type than I imagined, and that I CAN climb huge mountains and eat squashed (but still tasty) granola bars and have it be the greatest experience of my life."

Camper Choice || Daily Schedule || Special Trips and Programs || The Challenge Program || Sundays || Evening Activities The Challenge Program is a three year program for all our campers completing seventh, eighth, and ninth grade. It is designed to challenge the campers as individuals and as an age group outside of the familiar camp environment. Every Tuesday is Challenge Day, and instead of choosing instructional periods with the rest of camp, challenge campers participate in activities with their respective age groups. Typically, these activities involve leaving camp and going on day or overnight hiking, biking and canoe trips or staying in camp for ropes course activities. During overnight trips, groups stay at campsites where they cook their own meals and sleep in tents. Challenge groups also work together performing community service projects. The Challenge Program emphasizes the crucial process of building and working together in a group. As trust is built, individuals feel safe enough to stretch themselves in new ways.
