What is Father/Son Weekend?
It is the best weekend of the year! Every summer begins with a group of 160 dads and sons coming up to camp! Boys ages 4-16 join their dads on Thursday afternoon and enjoy non-stop fun through Sunday morning.
What will the boys do at camp?
Anything they want! The program includes some all camp activities like capture the flag and relay races. We will all play in a Father/Son Green & White Color War. We’ll have free time so the campers and dads can explore all the camp activities. The waterfront, target sports and the climbing wall are open all weekend. And every night we will have a campfire down at Sand Lake with s’mores and banana boats!
How are the cabins assigned?
The dads and boys sleep in the cabins together. These will be determined through a combination of requests and camp matching up boys of similar age groups.
