Overnight Adventures
New for 2011! SummerWorks is offering an overnight experience for campers of all ages! Our youngest campers and their families are invited to join us for our Family Campout. Campers and their families will participate in an unforgettable evening of faun and games on the Rowland Hall campus. Campers who are 8 to 12 years old are invited to join us for any one (or all!) of our Overnight Adventures. Each trip is designed specifically to engage campers in a new and exciting experience while teaching new outdoor skills while making lasting memories with their friends. Parents are encouraged to enroll their camper in the entire week of SummerWorks as campers will spend their pre-trip time with experienced outdoor leaders learning essential skills and building supportive relationships with their trip-mates. If space allows, parents may also enroll their camper in just the trip. Parents are invited to attend a pre-trip parent orientation meeting in order to receive packing lists and ask questions to the trip leaders. The dates of each orientation will be determined as the trip approaches.
