YMCA Camp Abnaki: SPECIALTY CAMPS
Special summer and family programs.

 

Minicampers enjoying freetime

For more info, contact the camp office at (802) 862-8993 ext. 129.

   MINI CAMP
  For 2010, Camp Abnaki is offering two Mini Camp options.

Mini Camp I is a half-week session for boys ages 6-9, allowing boys an easy transition to resident camping.   Mini campers spend four days and three nights at camp in a specialized program. Campers are able to sample all of the favorite camp activities in a shorter period of time.

Mini Camp II is a week-long session for boys ages 8-11.  This program more closely resembles a traditional week at camp, while providing fewer transitions and more small group activities than a regular session.

Activities in both programs are developmentally age appropriate and geared towards first time campers. Our goal is to provide a fun, nurturing experience and to instill a desire to return to camp for years to come.

   COUNSELOR-IN-TRAINING PROGRAM
  For young men who have completed 10th grade

Our CIT program enables campers to become tomorrow’s leaders. This 5 week program is designed to help campers in the transition to counselor and to develop leadership skills which can be used in school or in the workforce. The CIT experience provides in-depth training in skill development, child development, group dynamics, and conflict resolution.

Each CIT lives in a cabin with up to 8 other CITs. The CITs are supervised and mentored by the CIT Director. There are plenty of opportunities for CITs to enjoy camp recreation, off-site trips, and special events.

All CITs must have an interview with the Camp Abnaki Assistant Director.  Apply early as there is limited space!!  Download a pdf of the application and reference form here.
