Specialists and other staff plan thoughtfully to provide stimulating experiences, encouraging growth of knowledge and skills as well as self-expression. There is daily feeding, grooming, cleaning and lots of tender loving care. There is never a charge for arts and crafts materials. Canoeing instruction is available for beginners and intermediates. Our campers have constructed a barn, a greenhouse, a darkroom, and A-frames during past summers.
Projects requiring advanced skills are generally open only to older campers.
An important aspect of our program is that campers can take part in the care, grooming and feeding of our horses. Formal instruction is provided with children grouped according to skills, and special attention is given to those who need it. Other activities include horseback overnights, mountain games and trail rides. There is no charge for riding. Guitar lessons are offered as part of the ongoing program.
