Adventure Camp is designed as an outdoor action-packed program. When faced with weather not conducive to an outdoor program, preplanned alternative indoor activities will be offered instead. Camp will not be canceled due to weather in 2025. Please note that indoor activities will not be of the same caliber as our typical outdoor experiences.
