    The Young Stewards Program is dedicated young adults entering 7th grade and 8th grade  who love camp and would like to grow as model citizens for our community.The Young Stewards Program offers overnight camping trips, team building, and service projects that support growth of key skills like leadership and grit. And, of course, Young Stewards participate in all the awesome programs offered throughout the day at camp.

    COUNSELOR IN TRAINING

    The Counselor-in-Training program is for 9th and 10th graders who are truly interested in learning to develop their leadership skills.

    While our CIT program is popular, it is not for everyone!! Although counselors-in-training are still technically be a campers, which means they still have the opportunity to have fun and do some of the things they like at camp, they have more responsibility and are expected to do much more as a CIT. Sound right for you? Check out the website!

    Camp takes place from 9:00 to 3:30 each day, but there’s even more growth, learning and friendships to be found in XTRA Camp!

These may include arts & crafts, sports & games, teambuilding, drama, or even putting together special projects for the rest of camp.
