Land Activities

Soccer

A full-size soccer pitch nestled in a pine plantation is one of the most striking physical features of the camp. Qualified instructors oversee play within the camp as well as matches with other camps.

Riding

Western riding lessons are provided by excellent instructors. Classes are small and offer ring work and trail rides.

Drama

Take part in the “Big Show,” which is produced each four-week session, or ham it up at one of the weekly skit nights.

Air Riflery

Hone your marksmanship shooting for score and advancements with our .177-caliber target air rifles.

Climbing Wall

Climb 35 feet in the air on our four-sided climbing wall. The wall is located in our pine forest, near the soccer field.

Arts and Crafts

Take part in traditional camp crafts or explore your artistic side with ceramics or pottery. You can also build model rockets or work in our wood shop.
