Specialty Camps

 

These exciting specialty camps offer campers unique opportunities for new experiences!

 

 


Adventure Camp
Dates:   June 22-29, July 6-11
Ages:   13-14
Cost:   $395/week
Limit::   20 campers
Description:   Adventure Camp is perfect for those who have aged out of traditional summer camp programs. Experiences take campers to new levels of skills introduced in earlier camps, although first-timers can quickly pick up the basics and move along. Adventures include the climbing wall, new canoeing techniques, backpacking and campouts. Freshly acquired team work and communication skills are put to the test on an overnight canoeing trip. Adventure Camp offers young teens an exciting way to learn new skills and add to the confidence they will need as older teens.

  • Confidence and team-building activities including a challenge course and climbing wall

  • Meals prepared based on menus and recipes developed by ECU pediatric dietitians
  • Meals that help them lose weight and meet their nutrient needs

Physicians at the Brody School of Medicine will provide medical supervision for Take Off 4-Health. All campers will have 24-hour access to a camp nurse for medical and health needs. At the end of camp, campers will receive a booklet with handouts and materials to help them continue the healthy lifestyle habits they learned at camp.
