Junior campers jump right into classes so they can learn as much as possible in each of their activities. At the Junior session, campers will take 5 different classes every day for their week-long session. You can see the Junior Camp daily schedule on our Explore page.
Our Junior campers enjoy the very best classes we have to offer at camp, attending classes with their cabin group. Girls feel confident going to classes with their friends and love “sampling” every class offered at our Junior session. Because the campers try every class in camp, girls do not need to pre-schedule any classes. You can view a list of classes (available in the spring) that will be offered at Junior this upcoming summer (subject to changes and updates).
Campers at our June session will take a total of 14 classes, rotating between a Monday/Wednesday/Friday schedule of 7 classes and a Tuesday/Thursday/Saturday schedule of 7 classes. Girls at our Main session take a total of 12 classes, with an additional Club period each afternoon, rotating between a Monday/Wednesday/Friday schedule of 6 classes and a Tuesday/Thursday/Saturday schedule of 6 classes. August campers will take the same 7 classes everyday. You can see a copy of our daily schedule on our Explore page.
Club period (Main only): At Main Camp, our final 7th period class each day is our Club period. During this period, girls can try a more specialized activity that is offered or enjoy a free period. Look through a sample of our Club offerings to get a feel for what is available during our Club period.
June, Main, and August campers will schedule their classes on Opening Day with their counselor(s). Your daughter’s cabin counselor will help to make her schedule, ensuring she has the perfect mix of activities that she would like to take. To get a feel for what a schedule will look like, take a look at sample schedules for our June, Main, and August sessions; this will give your daughter an idea of what to expect with scheduling on Opening Day.
Some of our classes are only offered at longer sessions, and some are limited by grade-range (see details below). We also have some classes that take up 2 class periods (such as Sailing, Kayaking, or Senior Play). Make sure to check out our detailed list of activities (available in the spring) offered this summer (subject to changes and updates); your daughter can use this list to get an idea of what she would like to take before she even arrives. She can even bring with her on Opening Day a short list of classes she is interested in taking so that she remembers what she wants to take.
We want your daughter to have the very best schedule and to enjoy all of her classes! Over the course of the first few days of camp, if your daughter does not enjoy one of her classes, she is more than welcome to switch into a different class. We explain how to do this several times to all of our campers.
Mid-session switch (Main only): At Main Camp, girls have the opportunity to switch some of their classes halfway through the session; it is not mandatory. Classes that can be switched are activities such as Landsports, Eno Summer Reading, and more; look through a sample list of classes that are eligible for switching this summer (subject to changes and updates). Classes that cannot be switched are specialized activities that build on skills like art classes, performance classes, etc.
Over 90% of our camp classes are open to all campers regardless of their grade. A few of our classes are designed for campers who have completed a specific grade. The grades listed are for the grade your daughter will have just completed before the summer. This list will be updated in the spring for the upcoming summer.
