TRADITIONAL CAMP

Ages 5 -12 | $235/week

Traditional Camp provides structured, age-based programming that keeps campers active, supported, and engaged all week long. With arts and crafts, group games, character development, weekly swimming, and local field trips or special guest experiences, each day is intentionally designed for growth and fun. Campers are divided into age groups for safety and meaningful engagement, while gathering together daily for assemblies that celebrate traditional camp songs, community skits, and camper-of-the-week achievements. By the end of the week, campers leave with stronger confidence, new friendships, and stories to share.
