CAMP MINNOW LAKE

 

OUR CAMP PROGRAMS

 We offer a balanced, broad spectrum of interactive programs staffed by trained professionals.  Our counselors are experts in their fields and are required to attend classes in child development, cultural diversity and conflict resolution.

 

 Environmental Education

Green Futures stresses individual responsibility and the need to conserve and protect our earth’s resources.  Activities include planting trees, nature walks, overnight camp-out adventures, survival hiking, organic gardening, and recycling of natural resources.

 Fine Arts

Volunteer artists and craft artisans instruct family in Native American arts, murals, mask production, rock painting and sand arts using recycled materials, watercolors, pencil drawings, acrylics, and mixed media.

 Creative Theater Arts

Campers of all ages participate in this musical extravaganza that last night of camp.  Theater professionals help campers with production and direction in acting, singing, dancing, costume design, set construction, lighting, and sound.

 Communications Technology

Journalism, computer science, videography and photography are all offered.  Our camp newsletter, The Minnow Messenger, covers daily events written by camp reporters.  Short movies are created, and Camp “WFUN” radio sends short-wave radio broadcasts from campers to families all over the world.

 Personal Growth

These Programs promote individual awareness and sensitivity in cultural diversity, family, communications, conflict resolution, problem-solving, teamwork, rewards, and recognition.

 Sports & Dance

In a noncompetitive, teamwork atmosphere which excludes no one, our staff offers athletic clinics and activities to all campers.  These activities include basketball, volleyball, soccer, softball, swimming, boating, aerobics, aikido, horseback riding, and line dancing.
