Develop backpacking and survival skills this week. Sleep in the comfort of a platform tent your first net, then pack gear and food for the week and discover some secluded areas of camp, putting up tents, cooking meals over a fire, finding your way with a compass and practicing your archery skills. Bond with your counselors and fellow campers, play team-building games and explore the night. Return in time for an amazing dinner, closing cmapfire and traditional Trail Spa Night in the lodge.
Entering grades 6-8
Due to the extreme nature of this program, participants must have attended resident camp at least twice prior to this session, or have camp director approval. Personal outdoor equipment (mess kit, backpacking pack, sleeping bag and pad, etc) is required. Weather conditions and skill level of the campers will affect the level of 'extreme' that is possible, so come ready for anything!
