The Preschool Program
Our preschool program is designed for children who will be 2 years and 7 months by June 1 through age 5. Campers flourish in our Preschool Program, where they enjoy a rich blend of indoor and outdoor play, swimming lessons led by certified lifeguards, and a variety of engaging activities such as woodshop, movement, nature exploration, and art. Each day also includes story time to inspire young imaginations. Full-day campers benefit from a quiet rest period after lunch. Families can choose from flexible enrollment options: 3 or 5 full days, or 5 half days per week. Please note: children must be able to use the bathroom independently.
The Sprout Program (previously known as 5/6 program)
A bridge between Preschool and our Choice Programs, this program is designed for children entering kindergarten and first grade. Campers spend the mornings playing indoors and out with their own lead counselors and have daily swimming lessons with our certified lifeguards. After lunch, the children choose their activities, just as the older campers do, gaining confidence and independence within a structure that supports their individual development. Please note: Sprouts do not go to archery. All other specials are offered, however.
The Choice Program
Our Choice Program for campers in 2nd through 7th grade empowers kids to design their ideal camp day by selecting from a diverse range of activities each morning. Options include, but are not limited to, hands-on art projects, nature exploration, sports and games, drama and dance, archery, swimming, and woodshop, allowing campers to follow their passions and explore new interests. Each day also includes a swim lesson led by certified lifeguards, combining skill-building with fun in the water. This flexible, choice-based approach fosters independence, encourages friendships, and lets campers create a personalized adventure every day. During registration you will see we call our 2nd-3rd graders “Blossoms”, 4th and 5th graders, “Apples 1”, and 6th and 7th graders “Apples 2”!
The CIT Program
Our Counselor-in-Training (CIT) Program is designed for 8th and 9th graders who are eager to build leadership skills and play an active role in camp life. With guidance from experienced counselors, CITs gain hands-on experience supporting activities, working with younger campers, and practicing what it means to be a positive role model, while building confidence, responsibility, and strong peer connections. Due to the nature of the program, participants must commit to a minimum of four weeks, and we strongly recommend completing the first two weeks consecutively to support training and consistency. After registration, families will receive next steps, which include the future CIT writing a short letter and participating in a brief interview. Both are designed as practice for future employment and not used to determine enrollment in the program. Click here for more information.
The Essentials– Week 9
Week 9 is a special, pared-down experience that focuses on the heart of camp—adventure, connection, and play! As many of our staff return to teaching and college, we streamline activities, offering a simpler yet still engaging week with fewer available rooms and a modified schedule. While specialties like woodshop and archery take a pause, campers continue to enjoy the core elements that make summer unforgettable!
