Frequently asked questions
You have questions, we have answers. Go through your most frequently asked questions about activities.
Yes, your daughter will have an opportunity to select activities every afternoon based on a list of activities being offered that day. Morning activities are pre-assigned, giving everybody a chance to try everything. Aside from additional activities paid for, a special request for a particular activity multiple times during the week is not a request we can accommodate (Can my daughter play tennis 3 times a week? Sorry, we cannot make that promise). We stay so busy at camp, it isn’t possible to make that commitment.
Most of the activities are included in camper tuition–exceptions being horseback riding, water ski, tubing, golf, and motor trips. If campers elect not to participate in these additional activities, they will be very busy and very pleased with all the included options available.
Campers may choose to use their optional time at camp to study for entrance into a club. Clubs offered at camp include horseback riding, canoeing, mountaineering, and sail. Entrance into a club usually requires multiple summers of study, preparation, and hard work. Campers who earn this achievement are recognized at Award Night or Banquet with a celebration. It is an honor to receive entrance into a club. Camper’s names will be added to the hand painted boards in the Hearth.
