A Typical Day - Camp day starts with a morning-circle and flag ceremony, followed by the girls breaking into age appropriate groups. The rest of the morning, campers participate in a variety of age-appropriate activities planned with a special weekly theme as well as traditional camp activities. These may include songs, games, nature, cooking and arts & crafts.

After lunch, weather-permitting, it’s pool time! Nassau County certified lifeguards supervise all swimming.

Each week, a special guest visits camp where girls experience a unique activity.Past guests have included, “Reptiles on the Move,” square dancing and scrap booking.

Rainy Days - Don’t worry; rainy days are just as fun. In the event of rain, the camp director will decide in the morning whether to use a nearby rainy day site. Campers will enjoy special themed activities and events planned for use at the rainy day site. Some possible themes may include “Mad Scientist Day,” “Fitness & Fun,” or “Mystery Madness.”
