Summit Camp & Travel

Our summer design includes a complementary format of camp sessions that flow as three weeks, two weeks, three weeks. In addition, the three travel programs seamlessly allow a camper to combine camp and travel for the whole summer. We believe this format allows our campers to match their needs and interests while also enabling their families to plan for special family times at home or on vacation. Our travel tours are designed to dovetail with our campus program and thereby allow for participation in both program areas.

Heart O' the Hills Camp

Healthy atmosphere We learned at conference that the average American youth spends 6 to 8 hours a day in front of a screen, whether the screen is a computer, television, or cell phone. By leaving electronics unplugged, camp allows girls to move more. We eat healthy meals, snack little, walk a lot, run, laugh and play.

Engage all senses We do our best learning not when we sit and listen, but when all the senses are engaged. At camp we don't just listen, we DO. That stiumulus rich environment is the best for soaking it all up!

Social Skills Camp

Page 1 of 2


Parents with shy children may wish to enroll them in social skills camp. These camps teach young children and teens the life skills necessary to better communicate with others in social situations. Kids can not only take part in helpful workshops and exercises, but they can also make valuable friendships. Most programs group children by age and skill level, with the length of particular sessions to be determined by counselors who assess the needs of each child.

What to Ask the Camp Director: What is the camper to counselor ratio within the social skills program? Some camps boast a 2:1 ratio, ensuring individualized attention.

Counselor Certifications: Counselors should be licensed and certified in dealing with children that have disorders like nonverbal learning disabilities, Asperger's Syndrome, autism and the like. These children need to develop social skills to cope with everyday life, and therefore, counselors should have plenty of experience providing ways of developing and enhancing such skills.

What to Pack: Be sure to pack your child's comfort items, as time away at a life skills program can be daunting. Most of these camps offer traditional recreational options, such as swimming and hiking, so pack according to activities offered as well as the weather.
