Resident Camp Information
Resident Campers begin their days with breakfast at 8am. There is a hot option available as well as a cereal bar, toast, fresh fruit and yogurt.
After breakfast, campers meet on the field where they connect with their age group, discuss the day
and play a variety of sports and games.
Structured activities begin with "Round Up", a fun all-camp time to sing songs, make announcements and gear up for a fun day. Campers will then spend the first period of the day doing a special activity
with their age group. This gives them a chance to try something new in a group setting where they are
both familiar and comfortable.
After group time, campers rotate through four "Free Choice" activities that they will focus on
throughout the week. Campers are able to pick their "Free Choice" activities on the first day of camp.
Focusing on activities gives campers a chance to have plenty of time doing the activities they love and
the opportunity to learn skills in a given area. Campers are escorted to and from activity areas and
all activities are taught by counselors with experience teaching that particular activity. With over 22
activities to choose from, your campers will have plenty of choices!
Lunch takes place after the first "Free Choice" activity. A hot lunch option is always available as well as a sandwich bar, a salad bar, a baked potato station and a pasta option. There are plenty of choices for vegetarians and we are able to accommodate some dietary restrictions.
After lunch, campers get together for a ¬İshort "Group Time" relaxing out of the sun, playing games, spending time with their camp group and counselors and recouping their energy for a busy afternoon. The afternoon offers two
more "Free Choice" activities after which, campers meet up with their age groups and eat a healthy
snack.
At the end of the day, all of the age groups will then make their way back to the field to do a fun, "All-Camp Activity" such as capture the flag or "angleball," a Mountain Camp Woodside specialty.
Resident Campers eat dinner together and then participate each night in a special evening program.
Programs may include: Camp Fires, Dances, Karaoke Night, Skit Night, Bingo, Casino Night, Color Wars, Night Hikes, Sleep Outs, Moonlight Pool Parties and much more!
