This summer's Overnighter, open to campers ages 8-12, will be held during week #8 of camp, August 4th-6th. The overnight is a two night / three day outdoor trip, spent in the beautiful Uinta mountains. YMCA Camp Roger will serve as our home base where we will explore the great outdoors, travel on horseback, hike Moose Mountain, tell stories under star-filled skies, tent camp, and create lasting memories around the campfire. Our very own SummerWorks Guides (10-12 year old campers) will help design this Overnighter by choosing activities and helping to create our daily schedule. While at Camp Roger, campers will be accompanied and supervised by our SummerWorks staff members. If you are interested in participating in this year's Overnighter, you are encouraged to attend the full week of camp, week #8, August (2nd-6th). Prior to the overnight, we will spend two days at SummerWorks preparing for our adventure. The Overnighters will participate in a pre-camp orientation on Monday, learn LNT (Leave No Trace) basics, will participate in low ropes/team building initiatives, and will spend all day Tuesday (August 3rd) working together at the University High Ropes Course to prepare for their adventure together. We sure hope you can join us!
Cost for week #8: $375
This includes: 2 days of SummerWorks camp (Monday & Tuesday), High Ropes full-day teambuilding experience at UNI (Utah Neuropsychiatric Institute) on Tuesday, all food/lodging/activity costs while at Camp Roger, and transportation. *If you have already registered your camper for week #8 of camp and would like to add the Overnighter, please contact Laurie Browne, SummerWorks Director, and she will make the necessary changes to your registration - This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
