Summer Camp - Mountain Adventures Week - 2025

Youth Program

Summer Camp - Mountain Adventures Week

A fun-filled camp week featuring lots of climbing and a hiking field trip!

Mountaineers unite! This week is all about mountains: mountain climbing, mountain hiking, mountain goats, mountain appreciation...you name it!

Campers ages 6-12 are invited to come to a week packed with traditional camp games, songs and a heavy dose of outdoor adventure. Each week consists of rock climbing, outdoor skills, crafts, and swimming. Additionally, every week has a field trip, special activity, and/or outdoor adventures relating to the given theme.

During Mountain Adventures week, the camp will dive into the world of mountaineering by learning a variety of climbing techniques and going on a hiking field trip. Campers will enjoy field trips to beautiful local trails. Our younger campers (ages 6-8) will visit Tiger Mountain on Wednesday and our older campers (9+) will hike at Wallace Falls on Thursday.
