The 14-15 year-old campers take the "next step" and learn how to belay, participate on the low and high ropes course, rock climb outside, engage in waterfront activities and end the week with an overnight camp-out on Thursday evening. Everyone will enjoy participating in exciting new adventures as well as camper favorites.
Adventure Camp uses team-building and adventure activities to help youth learn how to help one another, listen, speak respectfully, cooperate, develop trust and develop leadership. 14-15 year-old campers participate in problem-solving activities such as Team Triangle and the Wall to build up their group. Campers are encouraged to commit to care and serve others not only at camp but with their families, friends,
schools and communities after Adventure Camp.
Campers are placed in a small group with a trained counseling team. Staff are current and past Gordon College students along with other carefully selected, caring adults. Adventure Camp's primary concern is seeing to each camper's phyical, emotional and social needs. We aim to keep our camper/staff ratio low at 5:1.
