My daughter attended a week long day camp at Camp Broadstone and absolutely loved it. She wants to attend the residential camp next summer. There were a variety of experiences—from dissecting owl excrement to climbing up the climbing wall. She had a wonderful time. ~ Parent

Description

Camp Broadstone’s Summer Enrichment Programs for Academically Gifted Youth provide children an opportunity to explore a blend of enrichment classes and adventure programs that are designed to encourage and foster intellectual, social and physical growth. Older campers participate in a four day out-of-camp advanced program that blends adventure activities with historical, cultural, and environmental activities. This type of programming offers campers a broad range of social participation, group responsibility and individual decision making opportunities. Broadstone offers three program options: two-week resident camp, one-week resident camp, and a week-long day camp. Day campers participate in enrichment classes, adventure activities, and field trips to local sites and events that will enhance the week-long program.
