The summit camp program

Arts, performance, athletics, outdoor education, nature, waterfront, and specialty activities are offered with the use of option within, such as selecting between a variety of arts programming areas rather than having a set schedule for a music or ceramics class.

The middle camp age group also enjoys a great deal of specialty games and activities that encourage team building and collaboration, as they are strongly desiring peer input and acceptance in a very new way.

Middle camp theme days have included activities as large as a wacky Olympics during the summer Olympics or as simple as having a pajama day- but these events create a special feeling of belonging our year old campers are uniquely craving. Evening social opportunities include talent nights and sports nights that are inclusive and encourage positive reactions towards their peers.

Campers continue to participate in a social skills development program and a program to improve executive functioning skills as a part of regular weekly program. Throughout the day many activities will be coordinated with bunks of campers up to 24 campers. Each camper is supported individually while encouraging acceptance and tolerance towards peers, use of personal coping skills, and identification of individual strengths and successes. Teens who join us at Summit in their later adolescence will participate in a program geared towards vocational and personal development referred to as the Super Teens.

This program universally serves all our older participants in all sessions. This program is comprised of three unique goal areas: social inclusion and development, vocational development, and transition to adult living skills. Volunteer to be a Summit Mountaineer.
