Year after year, the crowd turns out for Senior Camp, a program that offers the kind of variety and options that this age group enjoys. In the context of a full recreational summer program, the underlying theme in Senior Camp “Around the World in 40 Days” takes Senior Campers to places they never been before and has them making crafts, playing games and celebrating holidays from the countries and cultures they “visit.” Mini-academies in Senior Camp provide time for elective activities like Arts & Crafts, Music, Drama, Martial Arts, Basketball, Soccer and Baseball. They’re longer periods, great for really getting into the project or game.
Senior Campers have an enthusiasm of their own that follows them wherever they go. Groups are co-ed.
Features Two Trips Each Week
Seniors travel twice a week to destinations ranging from cultural and learning centers like theater, museums and zoos to recreational activities such as canoeing, skating, water and amusement parks and ball games. Senior Camp joins On Wheels on many trips.
Overnight
Our annual two day, one night trip to Club Getaway, a top-notch residential camp in the Berkshires, is always a popular choice for our campers. Solid camp friendships and close relationships with the staff give our Seniors the confidence they need to enjoy what for most is a first overnight camp experience. Travel is by first-class coach bus.
Dates & destinations may change due to unforeseen conflicts.
