Hawthorne offers a blend of engaging instruction and pure fun. Campers will enjoy a range of activity options that promote teamwork, athleticism, and sportsmanship. Take a voyage to the deserted island on a kayak adventure, duck and throw your way to victory in a dodgeball game, slide down the insano volcano inflatable mountain, or rock some beach nukem on the lakeside volleyball court.
The nature of the activities at camp allows campers to practice resolving disagreements and navigating a variety of social situations on their own. Counselors are skillful referees of camp life, but campers learn to experience and make their way through a variety of responsibilities, duties, opportunities, and activities.
While Hawthorne will tailor activity choices for boys, Athena Girls Camp runs concurrently and many activities, in addition to meals and campfire, will be coed.
