Day Camp
The Day Camp area is located on the opposite side of Briggs Rd. and is home to the Day Camp and Horse Camp programs. This section of camp includes a large amount of land that is unused/undeveloped for camp purposes. Three of the four platform tents used for "camp-outs" are located on this side of the road, as well as the high ropes course.
Day Camp is centered around a large enclosed pavilion. This building includes restrooms, offices, and storage space, but half of the pavilion is open for activities. The Day Camp area also includes a large fenced play area, a small chapel, the Children's Garden (where campers learn about various plants and insects), a soccer field, and a three-sided outdoor rock-climbing tower with zip line.

Famous quotes containing the words day and/or camp:
“The day of the sun is like the day of a king. It is a promenade in the morning, a sitting on the throne at noon, a pageant in the evening.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
“We could not well camp higher, for want of fuel; and the trees here seemed so evergreen and sappy, that we almost doubted if they would acknowledge the influence of fire; but fire prevailed at last, and blazed here, too, like a good citizen of the world.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
