Athena Girls Camp runs simultaneously with Dodgeball Camp for boys. The
Athena Girls Camp program is composed of popular American children’s games
supervised by our staff of college student counselors. Activity options
include swimming, drama, beach volleyball, dancing, singing and kayaking.
Kayak adventures include paddling around the island, through the swamp, or to
the cove to observe wildlife such as loons, herons, turtles, ducks and eagles.
Classic
games and field games options will include spud, tetherball, kick ball,
jump rope,
ultimate Frisbee, capture the flag, and tug-of-war. Several varieties of dodgeball
will also be options each day.
Knitting,
board games, hula hooping,
and limbo will be options during many periods. Reading period after
lunch gives girls time to read books or write in journals.
Camp
games and activities are supervised for fair play,
good sportsmanship, and fun. The program intends to give campers many
structured activities options, but also choices that give campers the freedom
they enjoy at school recess or playing with friends in the neighborhood.
Every evening concludes with a campfire that features singing,
dancing, contests, recognition, stories, and encouragement for good standards of
outdoor living such as leaving places cleaner than we find them.
Campers will be closely supervised at night by counselors in the cabin and counselors
on patrol between the girls' cabin area and the boys' cabin area and throughout the peninsula.
