Resident Camp

Resident camp offers girls the opportunity to stay at camp for 5 nights- Sunday- Friday or 2 nights in the mini sessions. Girls sleep in cabins of 4-6 girls of similar age with counselors in a nearby cabin. The youngest girls may sleep in bunk houses that sleep up to 18 girls plus the counselors all in 1 room with bathrooms in the same building. The combination of choose as you go activities and progressive specialized activities will create a perfect camp experience! Shorter “mini” sessions will be offered this year. These are a great option for younger and first- time campers.

Choose as you go

Girls have the ability to choose all of their activities at camp. They choose 2 morning activities after breakfast and 2 afternoon activities after lunch. These activities are a variety of traditional camp activities, badge related activities, crafts, and swimming. Both high energy and low energy activities are offered throughout the day to meet the desires of every girl. Some activities have limited availability. These activities will be represented by a sticker on the sign-up card. Once the girl participates in the activity, the sticker will be removed from her sign-up card. This will ensure that everyone gets a chance to do the activity before repeats are allowed. Choose as you go activities are introductory.

Progressive Specialized Activities

These are optional activitites that girls may select during registration. These activities do have an additional cost to participate. Girls are automatically signed up for their PSA every day- resulting in 1 less choose as you go activity option for them. PSAs are progressive in nature and the activities each day are intensive. Only girls who sign up for PSAs will be able to participate in the specific activities/ combination of activities. They will not be offered as choose as you go activities.

Day Camp

Day Camp is offered at Camp Coleman for girls and boys entering grades 1-6. Lunch is available for an additional $35. Drop off in the morning is at 8:00; pick up in the afternoon is at 5:00. Day campers will have the opportunity to choose from four activities each day in the “choose as you go” format. Day campers can sign up for the horseback riding specialized progressive activity.
