Activities…Tons of 'Em!
Bring Your Sense of Adventure
So much to tell you, so little cyberspace. We're very proud of the quantity and diversity of our activity choices. Read on…you're gonna learn a lot!
This is not your ordinary, everyday sports camp. You'll have the opportunity to do things you've always loved, but to also try things you've never done before! You may check out our water activities on Lake Towanda, get involved in some adventure programs, have some fun in our land activities or traditional activities, or maybe indulge your creativity in our crafts program. Sure camp is fun if you're into sports, but it's also a place for everyone and anyone to get involved, have a blast, and learn all sorts of new skills.
Look at All These Activities!
