Choice, Challenge, and Connection
Campers select their activities daily, allowing them to explore new interest, develop skills, and build independence in a supportive environment. Whether paddling across the lake, creating in arts & crafts, or collaborating in team challenges,
campers learn by doing and grow through experience.
Club Time
Each week, campers are able to choose from 6-10 different clubs. Clubs allow campers to pursue an activity that they are especially interested in and continue to develop that skill everyday that week with the same instructor and same group of campers.
Club Examples:
- Dance Club
- Sailing Club
- Survival Club
- Fishing Club
- Adulting Club
- Pinata Club
Leadership Workshops
At Camp Eagle Ridge, we are very intentional about the way we teach leadership. Leadership workshops are interactive experiences that focus on creativity, decision making, problem solving, leadership styles, communication skills, caring for others, goal setting and more. The workshops are very hands-on and game and activity driven. Campers are busy doing…creating…building…exploring and experiencing.
Beyond the leadership workshops, leadership is the focus throughout our activities. For example, canoeing is the perfect time to talk about partnership. We can stress the importance of communication during basketball. While skill development within the activity is important, we put emphasis on leadership development through our activities.
“Because of camp I created lifelong friendships that otherwise wouldn’t exist. My camp not only teaches leadership lessons, but life lessons. As kids, we go to camp with complete strangers and come home filled with love and priceless memories.”
