Balance of Choice and Structure
Each day blends structured activities with free‑choice periods, giving campers a balance of guidance and independence. Our master schedule ensures every team rotates through all core activities, while free time gives campers room to explore and spend time with siblings, friends, or other campers.
The 2‑Week Advantage
We offer one‑ and two‑week camp sessions. Our one‑week Mini Sessions are ideal introductions for young and first‑time campers, while our two‑week sessions provide the full CSC experience. Two‑week campers enjoy more activities, special events, off‑camp trips, and opportunities to earn challenge patches, giving them more time to grow, explore, and build lasting friendships.
Special Events
In addition to exciting daily on-site instructional activities, campers staying two weeks or longer enjoy a wide-range of special events, trips, and activities:
Trip to Terrapin Adventures (ages 12-13 only) - An outdoor adventure park with high-ropes courses, zip lines, and low-ropes courses.

Themed Days (Carnival Day, Wacky Weekend, etc)
