Our overnight programs are fun and exciting learning opportunities that every young person should have the chance to experience!  Cabin groups of six to nine campers and two staff members grow close as they share many exciting experiences together, but everyone also has a chance to feel independent as they make decisions and choices each day.  Children ages 7 to 16 can attend resident camp and are encouraged to try new activities, make new friends, take new challenges and have a GREAT time!

Daily Schedule and Activities
Resident campers are involved in as many activities as possible while getting plenty of rest and relaxation.  Each day, campers attend four, 1-hour, small-group sessions based upon their ranking of their favorite camp activities.  Throughout the week large group activities are offered based upon the theme in place each week.  These whole camp activities may include sports, educational programming, free-time, and theme specific programs or activities.  Campfire ends each day, which allows the entire camp community to sing together.
