    Day in the Life of a Camper

    What is a Typical Day At Camp?

    The short answer - there is no typical day! Every day is truly unique. However, we do try to mix in 'regular' days along with 'special event days' to give some structure to our program. As you can see below, we have a wide variety of activities for campers which they would experience on a 'regular' day.

    Our special event days are typically half or full-day events that include activities, costumes, games, and more! Hike Day and Zoo Trip, Greek Olympians Day, Dr. Seuss on the Loose!, Candyland, Chinese New Year, Harry Potter World, and Color Wars are just a few example of the creative programming you would expect to see on a special event day.

    All About Activities

    Each day our campers participate in any number of the below activities we offer with girls their age to try new things and gain new skills. Everyone gets to swim every day - sometimes even twice if you're lucky! We work on improving swimming skills but also just like to splash around! Find something you love? Sign up for it during Choice Activity!
