Senior Camp

Senior Camp program is designed and taught to be developmentally appropriate and to take advantage of a camper's maturation and expanding skill set. Our senior campers benefit from a tremendous range of activity choices. They appreciate the opportunity to design their own schedules based on their particular interests.  Every two weeks, campers select new programs so they can try many different activities. Senior campers are also divided into color teams for the summer and have weekly competitions culminating in the final all-day Green Acres Camp Cup tournament at the end of camp.
