Adventure Trips (Grades 7 - 10)

One or more trips from our successful Senior Trip program may be added after a session of camp or as part of Session I or Session II. Trips may also be selected without attending camp sessions.

Morning Mountain Biking

Each week the campers on the Mountain Bike Trip will leave campus at 9:00 a.m. and return at noon Monday - Friday.

$250 ($75 if attending camp Session II)
