Creative Arts

Through creative arts, each camper has an opportunity to express her innate talents or try something new.

Arts and Crafts:  Campers explore their creativity by using a variety of different media. Popular choices are friendship bracelets, paper mache, tie-dye, candle making, collage, mobiles, mailboxes, etc. A favorite for Juniors is a hike to a covered bridge near the camp property for a sketching class. Senior campers often have opportunities for more advanced drawing or painting classes.

Pottery: The girls design and create their own clay projects through hand building techniques and have the chance to fire and glaze their work. We have two pottery kilns in camp; one each in Senior and Intermediate/Junior Camp. The girls are welcome to bring their creations home with them at the end of the summer. Many campers take this opportunity to create gifts for their family and friends..

Music/Drama: Each unit performs a musical production. The girls work hard on their lines, choreography, songs and set design. The campers have performed musicals such as Aladdin, Beauty and the Beast, and Annie in recent years. The campers can also participate in chorale singing, drama or improv classes. Campers sing on the trails and lakes, in the dining hall and at the close of each day. We encourage campers who play musical instruments to bring them to camp for practice and opportunities to perform at camp fires or Sunday Grove services.

Dance: We offer a variety of options including traditional, modern and cultural dance. Campers often participate in developing the choreography and have opportunities to perform. Yoga and aerobics are often popular activities as well.
