Basic Camp for Teens • The Teen Scene!

Our teen camp program, for girls entering 7th through 10th grades, is challenging, interesting and stimulating. Cooking and creative arts are just some of the choices girls may explore. Girls have the opportunity to create great relationships, share experiences and discover new adventures.
