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:
“Among the interesting thing in camp are the boys. You recollect the boy in Captain McIlrath’s company; we have another like unto him in Captain Woodward’s. He ran away from Norwalk to Camp Dennison; went into the Fifth, then into the Guthries, and as we passed their camp, he was pleased with us, and now is “a boy of the Twenty-third.” He drills, plays officer, soldier, or errand boy, and is a curiosity in camp.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
“Love and work are viewed and experienced as totally separate activities motivated by separate needs. Yet, when we think about it, our common sense tells us that our most inspired, creative acts are deeply tied to our need to love and that, when we lack love, we find it difficult to work creatively; that work without love is dead, mechanical, sheer competence without vitality, that love without work grows boring, monotonous, lacks depth and passion.”
—Marta Zahaykevich, Ucranian born-U.S. psychitrist. “Critical Perspectives on Adult Women’s Development,” (1980)
