Activities
Overview:
On the first day of camp, every camper is placed on a team for the week. Campers are always placed on teams with their friends or siblings, per their choice. Each team has 2-3 coaches who assist them during competitions, field trips, lunch, etc...
For the duration of the week, campers and teams may earn points by winning competitions, demonstrating good character, following directions, and wearing team colors. On "Championship Friday," after our final competitions, teams are awarded medals based on their accomplishments! All campers will also receive a camp t-shirt or alternative souvenir (for multi-week campers). We will then conclude our amazing week by viewing a movie that mirrors the fun and friendships that we have experienced throughout camp: The Sandlot.
