Age Groups at a Glance
Discovery Camp
| aGes 3 ThrouGh enTerinG 1sT GraDe
A unique environment created precisely for our youngest campers. Children
are placed into speciic groups based on age/grade and participate in many
camp activities under the close supervision of our nurturing counselors. The
low camper-to-counselor ratio ensures that all campers receive the support
and assurance they need for a successful camp experience. A sampling of
activities includes
swim instruction,
arts and crafts,
zipline, sing-alongs,
sandbox play,
outdoor games,
nature activities and
story times. Children
entering the irst
grade also have the
opportunity to go
boating. All campers
must be completely
potty trained and at least age three by June 1. To ensure a quality camp
experience, we recommend all three-year-olds attend a minimum of two or
more weeks, and we strongly recommend consecutive weeks.
xplorer Camp
| enTerinG GraDes 2nD-5Th
Explorer campers are always looking for fun and challenging experiences
and we provide them! Campers are grouped by grade level with rising
second and third graders together and rising fourth and ifth graders
together. Excellent counselor role models provide supervision, guidance and
encouragement. Due to the large variety of activities, explorer campers often
get to choose their activities. Some of the activities include swimming, arts
and crafts, archery, boating, nature study, group initiatives, zipline, outdoor
games, sports and more. Rising fourth graders and older have opportunities
to sign up for the climbing tower, marksmanship, and tree climbing.
dventure Camp
| enTerinG GraDes 6Th-8Th
The ultimate in middle school-based camping. There are plenty of activities
that vary by week including woodworking, drama, challenge games, sports,
crafts, climbing tower, zip line, marksmanship and other options. But what
really makes Adventure Camp so popular is the group bonding time, peer
relationships and camaraderie with staff. Under the leadership of active staff
role models, adventurers are a tight knit team and thrive on getting to choose
their groups based on the weekly activities.
