Our Intermediate Camp sessions are intended to meet the high-energy needs of adolescents aged 12-14 during this special time in their lives. We strive to provide an opportunity for our campers to shape the community they are a part of as they begin to explore having more agency in their lives. Intermediate is also the first opportunity for Mountain Campers to experience more adventurous outdoor activities at our camps, including rock climbing and whitewater rafting. Other opportunities include:

 

• Arts & crafts and creative expression activities, including pottery, nature sculpture, and poetry workshops;

• Adventure experiences, including whitewater rafting, canoeing, and hiking for all ability levels;

• Agricultural and botanical adventures, including learning to identify edible and medicinal plants native to our region, harvesting and preparing (and eating!) produce from our farm, and learning about the fantastic variety of fungi present on the Mountain;

• Athletic pursuits, including team sports, swimming at our waterfront, large group games such as capture the flag, and archery;

• Self-exploration and social justice workshops, including body positivity, nonviolent communication skills, and thoughtful debates.

 

Many of our long-term returning campers start their journey with the Mountain family at Intermediate camp. Whether you come for one season or return for a lifetime, we hope to see you up on the Mountain this summer!
