FAQ

 

Frequently Asked Questions:

 

  1. What should my child expect at camp?
    1. Lots of Programs. Your child will experience new things through our specialized program staff. They will be encouraged to learn new skills such as archery, kayaking, rock wall climbing, and more! They will have the opportunity to maintain the information learned during the school year at our STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) exploration program.
    2. Technology Detox. Your child will forget about their phone with all of our engaging activities. They will learn how to be present in the moment and to focus on real world skills.  The endless anxieties that are attached to technology usage will dissolve as children learn how to work on the social skills that schools do not teach.
    3. Outdoor Adventures. Your child will PLAY. They will explore the forest, get dirty going down our mudslide, swim in the pool, chase butterflies, and more.  Camp really takes children into the outdoors and gives them an unforgettable experience (while sneaking in loads of exercise).
