Camp Description
Jen’s Camp believes in giving kids experiences that empower them and build their confidence - by giving them the power to choose from offered activities based on their own interests. Camp is set up for ages 5-12 with multiple activities happening simultaneously. The activities are all self-guided and campers can work at their own pace. Even the youngest of campers can typically approach an activity and figure out how to get started on their own. We have trained staff standing by to help guide campers.
Our biggest reward is watching camper’s confidence in themselves grow as they successfully navigate tasks and learn processes independently.
The daily camp schedule allows for social/emotional check-ins between staff and campers. Open, honest communication is something we prioritize. Isn’t that a breath of fresh air? Jen’s Camp leaders (staff) are all CPR, First Aid, and AED certified as well as background checked at both the federal and state levels. They attend training for our specific philosophy and design as well as COVID/health and safety best practices.
