Early June Camp (5 days)

Early June Camp is very similar to August camp in program and age group, but girls will be at Green Cove and boys at Mondamin, with no concurrent family camp. It will be small (about 50 girls), and will be a good way for children not quite ready for three weeks to get a taste of camp life. For 6 to 10 year olds (through at least the first grade).

June Camp (3 weeks)

In a short session, we can touch a variety of activities, make some new acquaintances, have lots of fun. Our June Camp program is oriented more towards "fun" activities, utilizing skills which are attainable in three weeks. We can practice independence, work on self-reliance, and build such skills and friendships as time permits. The short period is an excellent choice for those wanting a taste of camp fun, with time left over for a family trip or other substantial summer activity. For ages 7 to 13.

Main Camp (5 ½ weeks)

The five week period is for those who want a big bite of skills, pioneer experiences, and stimulating contacts. A camper who has coordination and industry can learn to take her horse over a fence, to guide her canoe down a rapid, to handle herself in a variety of sometimes challenging situations. Six-day trips and longer are possible. The "three-way" trip encourages breadth of interest, and requires a high level of skill in riding, canoeing, and mountaineering. Even more importantly, there is a tremendous opportunity for forging durable friendships among peers and adults which can , and often do, last a lifetime. Main Camp is the session of choice for those campers wishing the greatest exposure and opportunity for building friends and skills, and taking wilderness trips. For ages 8 to 17.

August Camp (1 week)

August Camp is an end-of-summer, introductory week (or less, depending on the calendar) of camp for younger campers. It is small (about 60 campers) and our only session that is co-ed. The camp is held at Mondamin, girls occupying one line of cabins and the boys another. It is a good way for children not quite ready for three weeks to get a taste of camp life. For 6 to 10 year olds (through at least the first grade).

Family Camp (1 week)

Our Family Camp operates simultaneously with August Camp at Mondamin. Families stay in cabins and participate in camp activities especially tailored to fit your ability levels and desires. Very popular with our alumni, but a whole lot of fun for just about anyone.
