Daily Programs

Daily activities include swimming, canoes, horseback riding, crafts, recreation, nature study, outdoors, and low ropes course. Fishing and hiking, cookouts, playing in Kelly's Creek, sports and games, riflery and archery all add to the fun. The older campers of 2009 will be the first campers to experience the thrill of our new high ropes course.

 

The pool staff are certified lifeguards who give swim tests at the beginning of the session, teach short daily skilled swimming lessons on campers' levels, and observe their free swims. All campers are under the buddy system while at the pool.

All campers have an opportunity to ride horses several times during the week. All our horses are gentle enough for non-riders. Horse activities are under close supervision.
