Introduce your child to the outdoors!

 


Adventure Village (Grades 5-9)

Adventure Village is organized into two mini-villages, Woodwise (Grades 5-7) and Sequoia (Grades 8 & 9), both with the same mission: to help campers become lifetime lovers of the outdoors! Combining the best of Overnight Camp and Adventure Trips, campers choose their adventure from activities like climbing, day-long hikes exploring trails and creek beds, orienteering, ropes courses, and outdoor skills. Campers in the village will also experience a four to five-day mini-trip with their peers. Our Woodwise-aged campers will spend their time backpacking around the Catskills, climbing in the Shawangunks, or exploring our 5,500-acre property. Our Sequoia-aged campers will have the opportunity to venture a bit farther to backpack and canoe in the Adirondacks.

Adventure Village’s home base is tucked in the woods between two converging mountain creeks with a communal Mongolian Yurt in the center. Campers sleep in bunks in canvas platform tents where they drift off to the soothing sounds of frogs chirping in the cool mountain air beneath the brilliant starlight.
