Camp - Trailblazers |
|||||||||||||||||||||||
|
The Trailblazers Program is geared towards our most experienced camper. The program brings together young people with similar outdoor interests, a zest for adventure, and love of the outdoors. While we remain stationed at Base Camp, we travel with campers to nearby sites that provide challenge and variety. Our
most senior counselors provide leadership and supervision, maintaining
"safety-first" guidelines. Campers learn and refine technical
skills in their favorite activity. They challenge their bodies and minds
to reach new goals. Though physically tired (and dirty!) at the end of
the week, Trailblazers return home energized with self-confidence and
satisfied with their accomplishments.
