These senior campers have their own section of cabins and their own dining area, yet share all camp facilities and take part in many all-camp activities with Camp Regis. Applejack Teen Camp strives to provide an environment in which teens can feel good about themselves. Campers are given the opportunity, through greater involvement in planning their own daily schedule, to pursue activities which they feel good about and to master a high level of skill in those areas. They are also given a chance to confront challenges and, with the guidance and instruction of our caring staff, gain the tremendous feeling of having met the teen camp experience with success. They also have the opportunity to contribute to the running of our large community, and to thus gain the wonderful feeling of having made an inpact upon the betterment of others' lives.
Social life is a very important aspect of the teenage years.
To this end we recently built a huge, open-air, covered pavilion to serve as the focal point for teen camp gatherings. Another important focus of Applejack is to keep our campers active and involved. For our younger teens, there are day trips to Montreal for an Expo's baseball game or the excitement of a jet boat ride through the Lachine Rapids, topped off by dinner and a visit to the Old French Quarter. There are also opportunities for white water rafting, amusement park outings or water park visits. We also offer evenings out at the movies, skating rink or bowling alley.
