Dodgeball Camp is located on a beautiful wooded peninsula that extends a half mile into Panther Pond. The 90 acre peninsula is criss-crossed by a few miles of trails through oak, birch, hemlock, and white pine trees.
Dr. dodgeball, bombardment, scatterball, wiffle ball, kick ball, capture the frisbee, and tug-of-war are conducted on our expansive athletic field. The edges of the 5000 square yard field are shaded by towering pine trees. The field rests on sandy soil that drains quickly.
The forest trail system is used for tennis ball fights, guerilla warfare, kick the can, and capture the flag. Trails traverse the peninsula and follow the shore of the lake providing spectacular views.
The natural beach is flat, wide, fifty meters long, and composed of fine golden sand that makes it a great site for swimming, beach volleyball, slip-n-slide, and water fights. The beach is bordered by great shade trees under which there are beach chairs that provide a beautiful setting for knitting and reading.
The camp dining hall sits right on the shore so that every table has a view of Panther Pond through large screened windows.
Campers stay overnight in ten airy screened cabins that are as close as fifteen yards from the beach and no more than forty yards from the beach. Girls cabins are on one side of the beach, and boys cabins are on the other. Cabins are supervised by the residential counselor staff every night. Campers fall asleep at night to the sound of breezes rustling through the pine trees and waves lapping against the shore.
