Rhythm of the day

sunOur mornings begin with a check-in at our drop-off tent. Each group has their own meeting place.

After most campers have arrived we offer active large-group “morning games’ for campers ages 6 and up.

Next we move into our Pathway Groups where we engage in a focused activity for about an hour. This period usually includes snack.
We then gather at the Patio for our daily All Camp Circle. Here we meet together, greet one another, untie our daily knot, sing and play music together, hear about Free Choices on days it is offered, and all other camp traditions.

Then we divide into our home groups, and have lunch. Some afternoons are Free Choice Days, and others are Group Days. Often, afternoons are spent hiking, or exploring the woods around each group’s home site.

Each day includes time for:

  • All group circle and singing
  • Group time
  • Lunch
  • Games
  • Projects
  • Crafts
  • Unstructured play
  • Pathways workshops
  • Free Choice activities
