Trip Program
All campers participate in our well-organized trip program. Led by skilled and certified trip leaders, our campers venture far and wide. Younger campers participate in simple overnight canoe and hiking trips. As campers get older the challenges and thrills their trip choices provide increase. Our shortest trip is a quick overnight to the other side of our lake and the longest a 6 day adventure in Maine’s Baxter State Park, culminating in a climb up Mt. Katahdin, Maine’s highest peak!
