SENIORS VILLAGE

As the oldest campers on camp, Senior Village Campers exemplify what camp pride and spirit are all about. Campers are placed in groups of 20-30 with a staff ratio of 1:10. Sports, canoeing, archery, and high and low ropes, among other areas are all modified to meet the needs of our oldest campers’ experience. An emphasis is placed on campers developing problem-solving skills, building self-confidence, understanding the value of being a part of a community, and working together to achieve goals. Seniors Village Campers are given freedom, resources, and support in choosing how they spend some of their time at camp, creating an experience designed by themselves.
