Adventure Trip Camp: week-long adventure-based experience for High School campers in various outdoor adventure activities. The challenge and adversity of the experience, coupled with the incredible natural beauty and small group interactions, makes this a dynamic time of growth and discovery. Trip Camp is an out-of-camp 5 day, 4 night experience that has served as a rite of passage for thousands of young men over the years. This year, we are offering 4 different Adventure Trip Camps --see below for descriptions!
*Due to the strenuous, physical nature of this program, Trip Campers must complete an additional Health Screening Questionnaire. It can be found in the “Forms” section of the website.
Chaperones do not attend this camp.
