Unit-specific Things to Know!
Kinder Camp and Lower Camp Tips and Tricks
Practice makes Perfect!
For our youngest campers, changing out of wet bathing suits can be one of the most challenging parts of the camp day. Our helpful tip we want to share is to have your young camper practice this skill at home! Having them try on their bathing suit during bath time or at your favorite local swim spot can help them build this skill and feel more successful and confident going into the changing rooms.

Teen Camp Overnight
Additional Swim
Teen campers enjoy an additional swim block following the end of the traditional camp day to jumpstart the overnight!
Setting up Camp
Campers build their skills by setting up their tents by themselves (with staff support if they need, of course)!
Dinner (and Dessert!)
After a game of capture the flag, teens enjoy a hotdog dinner and a s'mores dessert!
Part of the teen camp overnight is the night hike where the group hikes silently to our North Beach Location to experience Hale at night! This part of the experience provides them with a new perspective of nature including fireflies lighting up the fields, new sounds they wouldn't hear during the daytime, and an unobstructed sky full of stars.
