Middle Campus

A Day in the Life at Everwood Middle Camp

3rd & 4th Grade

Campers experience the best of both upper and lower camp activities and facilities, plus elective choices. Groups typically consist of approximately 16 campers with 2-3 counselors that are dedicated to the group all day and all summer long. Groups are mixed gender or gender specific (based on parent preference) and based on the grade children are entering in September. Counselors that work with this age group all have a specific interest in working with this age group, are phenomenal role models and continue to nurture our growing Sophomores as much as they may require. Counselors are highly trained and closely supported by certified and experienced teachers.

Our middle campers at Everwood experience a wide range of activities across both our main campus and upper campus property, allowing for a wide variety of activities and adventures. In addition, our Sophomores have one elective period per week in which campers can choose what activity they would like to focus on. Elective choices are just as varied as our general activities and all programs are led by specialists with specific experience in the area of instruction and support by our general counselors. This includes activities such as fishing, canoeing, sports, ropes course, nature and exploration, Dance, yoga, arts and crafts and so much more.

  • Arrival

    Morning Assembly

    As campers arrive to camp they are greeted by camp staff and guided to their designated group meeting spot in our assembly area. Attendance is taken, lunches collected, and counselors set the stage for the day. Camp Directors lead the morning assembly with special announcements, traditions, and flag raising. Campers then walk with their counselors to put their bags in their cabins and head to their first period activity!

    Free Swim

    All of our middle campers have a period each day where they can choose if they want to swim or play on the beach with friends, or both! It’s a great open free play time! Our lifeguards closely supervise swim areas while our camp counselors play with our campers in the water ensuring low adult to camper ratios and close monitoring of all swimmers. Campers will stay in shallow water, unless they have demonstrated a specific set of skills proving they can swim in deeper swim areas (American Red Cross Level 3).
