Rise and Shine! ☀️

The day begins bright and early with the sound of the morning bell. Campers wake up in their cabins, get dressed, and join their campmates for a refreshing morning stretch at the flagpole field. After making their beds and tidying up, it’s time to head to the dining hall for breakfast with friends.

Morning Activities 🎯

With bellies full and energy high, campers dive into the morning’s activities! Depending on the schedule, they might be:

• Paddling across the lake 🚣‍♀️

• Practicing your aim in archery 🏹

• Exploring nature trails and learning about local wildlife 🌿

• Expressing your creativity in an arts & crafts session 🎨

Each session is led by enthusiastic activity counselors who encourage campers to challenge themselves, try new things, and have fun!

Lunchtime and Rest Hour 🍽️

After an active morning, it’s time to recharge with a nutritious lunch in the dining hall. Campers enjoy classic favorites, fresh fruits, and plenty of laughter with friends. After lunch, we slow things down with rest hour—a chance to relax, read a book, write letters home, or take a short nap before the afternoon fun begins.

After another jam-packed day, dinner is a time to refuel and share stories. Once the sun begins to set, it’s time for one of the best parts of camp—evening activities!

• Clubs – An all-camp program where every camper can choose for herself what she wants to do. Choices are legendary: board games, spa night, double dutch, games on the field, dance, painting, and more.

• Talent Shows – Campers showcase their skills, from singing and dancing to comedy and magic tricks! 🎤✨
