Family Weekend 2024
Date: August 1 - 4, 2024

What:

Designed specifically for families who want to “dip their toe” into the sleepaway camp experience, Family Weekend welcomes parents and guardians of camp-aged children (6-14) to join us for a 3-day camp sampler.

​

Children and their families will have a range of fun activities to choose from. Parents are invited to participate in a series of focus group conversations to learn about the benefits of sleepaway camp and to provide insight and feedback to inform Camp Keith’s future sessions.

​

Activities include:

  • Ropes Course / Climbing Wall

  • Canoeing

  • Archery

  • Hiking / Nature Walk

  • Sports: Baseball, Basketball, Soccer, Flag Football, Gaga

  • Arts & Crafts: Drawing and Painting

  • Swimming

  • STEM: Drone Training, 3d Printing, Laser Engraving

Why:

A “camp sampler” weekend offers parents and guardians of first time campers the opportunity to experience camp alongside their children. In future sessions, Camp Keith will expand into a full week long session for youth campers (ages 6-16.)
