Camp Activities
Daily activities include a ropes course (zip-line, rock walls, and high ropes elements), sports and games, archery, fishing, cooking, starlab, dance, horseback riding, and swimming. Younger (scheduled) campers participate in activities as a cabin, while older (free-choice) campers select their activities on an individual basis.
Projects, which last for about an hour everyday, allow for all campers to individually branch out into a unique area of interest. Projects include: karate, basketball, outdoor adventure, pottery, cooking, painting, hockey, cinematography (Lights. Camera. Action!), rappelling, card games, and photography/darkroom.

Famous quotes containing the words camp and/or activities:
“Usually the scenery about them is drear and savage enough; and the logger’s camp is as completely in the woods as a fungus at the foot of a pine in a swamp; no outlook but to the sky overhead; no more clearing than is made by cutting down the trees of which it is built, and those which are necessary for fuel.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Both gossip and joking are intrinsically valuable activities. Both are essentially social activities that strengthen interpersonal bonds—we do not tell jokes and gossip to ourselves. As popular activities that evade social restrictions, they often refer to topics that are inaccessible to serious public discussion. Gossip and joking often appear together: when we gossip we usually tell jokes and when we are joking we often gossip as well.”
—Aaron Ben-Ze’Ev, Israeli philosopher. “The Vindication of Gossip,” Good Gossip, University Press of Kansas (1994)
