ACTION-PACKED DAYS, LIFELONG MEMORIES

Future Stars Junior Adventure Camp is a program designed for campers who are eager to explore, take on new challenges, and grow both physically and personally. The camp combines on-campus and off-campus activities, modeled after popular Adventure Education programs featured in schools nationwide.

Campers will experience a variety of daily adventures that develop physical skills, encourage teamwork, and promote leadership. Each new location offers its own unique challenges, while experienced Physical Education teachers and on-site staff guide and support every activity. Each camper receives plenty of active play, hands-on learning, and opportunities to challenge themselves in a safe, fun environment. By the end of the week, campers leave with a sense of accomplishment, stronger self-confidence, and lasting friendships. 

Junior Adventure Camp is available for campers ages 8 - 10.
