DATES:

Girls of all ages will make lifelong memories at Athena Girls Camp. Swim and play in the warm, clear lake every day, sing and dance around the campfire every evening, and sleep in the same cabin as all of your friends every night. This is a world that is free of glowing rectangles. Life could not be better.

AGES: For girls entering grades 3 through 10.

SPECIAL OFFERS: Sibling discount: 10% off per sibling when two or more siblings attend the same week.  (Discount applied as refund after signing up all siblings)

Campers experience an array of creative, fun, and safe activities in their unforgettable week at camp.  They will bond with old friends, and make new ones easily while having the time of their lives while they jump off the docks, kayak, and dance their hearts out at campfire. 

Campers are carefully supervised at all times by our carefully selected staff of college students.  Attendance is taken eight times each day.  Counselors closely monitor games and activities for fair play, good sportsmanship, and fun.

Activity periods contain a mix of active games and leisure activities.  Some of the more popular games include SPUD, tetherball, jump rope, capture the flag, and big-wheel tricycle races.   Several varieties of dodgeball will also be options each day. 

Our more relaxing activities include open swim, kayak trips to our private beach with wild blueberries, friendship bracelets, knitting, limbo, and drama games. Reading period after lunch gives girls time to read books or write in journals.

The program gives campers many structured activities options, but also provides several 'free time' periods where girls learn to interact with their peers in the same way they do at school recess and in playing with their friends in the neighborhood.  

Each evening concludes with a campfire that features singing, dancing, contests, recognition, stories, and encouragement for good standards of outdoor living and self reliance.  The 'Thoughts for the Day' recited at campfire include such wisdom as 'leave every place cleaner than you find it".

Campers will be closely supervised at night by counselors in the cabin and counselors on patrol between the girls' cabin area and the boys' cabin area and throughout the peninsula.

**Stay for multiple sessions and enjoy a weekend intercession program filled with pizza, ice cream, and an overnight camping trip to Hawthorne Cove.**
