Co-Ed Specialty Camp

During the last week of the summer, we offer a five day co-ed progam that takes place at Camp Hayward. Campers enjoy a traditional camp experience while also receiving specialized instruction in one of the many activities listed below. Campers spend the day in their chosen specialty under the guidance of skilled instructors. Other program time is spent in a variety of traditional camp activities, such as swimming, campfires, and a camp dance.
