Explorers
Rising 4th-6th Grades

Our Explorers Program is designed to empower campers as they embark on a journey of self-discovery and skill development. As an Explorer, campers can dive into a variety of activities, explore their identities, and build lasting friendships. Through engaging experiences, campers will enhance their critical thinking, refine conflict resolution skills, foster independence, and practice positive communication. Our counselors create a supportive environment where every Explorer can thrive and grow, both as a person and as a member of a vibrant community!

Explorer campers have the opportunity to register for one of six program focus areas. Each Explorer group will have water related activities daily.

Art & Drama allows campers to unleash their creativity through various artistic expressions. They can explore visual arts, theater, and performance, fostering self-expression and imagination while building confidence in their talents.

This flexibility allows them to delve deeper into activities they are passionate about while also encouraging them to try new things, fostering a sense of independence and self-discovery.

Social & Emotional Growth

As they approach middle school, campers interact with diverse personalities and practice essential friendship skills in a supportive environment. This opportunity helps them understand group dynamics, build empathy, and navigate social situations more effectively. By forming connections with peers, they develop stronger interpersonal skills.

communication & Critical Thinking

Explorers enhance their critical thinking abilities by analyzing facts and forming opinions in a safe space. They learn to communicate positively by thinking before speaking and practicing active listening. This focus on effective communication not only helps them express themselves clearly but also fosters a sense of responsibility for their choices and their impact on others.
