The camp features a variety of day and overnight experiences, from an exhilarating Challenge Ropes Course and scenic Canoeing beneath the rainbow bridge to relaxed time in the Meadow and evenings at the Amphitheater.
Accommodation options include dormitory-style Sleeping Quarters with bunk beds and shared kitchens, accessible options, and the newly renovated Hulk House with electricity, air conditioning, and a full kitchen for family- or troop-style stays.
