SUMMER CAMP:

TEEN TRAVEL
Grades 7 and Up
 
An experience for our senior campers, this program is designed to give participants the best of both worlds! Campers will take a minimum of 2 trips a week off campus, and still have time to enjoy traditional camp activities with our Teen Lounge campers (see Teen Lounge details page) including sports, arts & crafts, music studio, cooking, video games, hiking, dodgeball and all special camp-wide events.  Campers will also be swimming at the Highlands Country Club at least once a week. All campers will be swim tested the first week they attend camp.  Please note some dates and trip details are subject to change due to weather and availability concerns; also, Teen Travel campers are not eligible to go on Teen Lounge trips.  SPACE IS LIMITED SO PLEASE REGISTER EARLY!  An updated medical form is required to attend summer camp.
