About Day Camp
Day Camp presents an opportunity for rising
2nd-5th graders to
experience many of the great things Miniwanca has to offer. Campers will spend
days with their action teams playing together and challenging themselves
in a positive, friendly atmosphere. Whether on the sand dunes or the shores of
Stony Lake, fun is just around the corner
Schedule
Monday – Thursday
The days begin with the entire camp
community gathering for assembly, where action teams are are launched into the
day.
In the morning campers will be able to try
the climbing wall, tube down stony creek, and climb "Old Baldy," Miniwanca’s
signature sand dune.
The afternoons will be filled with time at
the beach, craft’s, as well as a variety of activities that the camper’s will be
able to choose.
Lunch will be provided as will a morning
and afternoon snack.
Friday
We will have a special extended day on
Friday. We will take a short hike to our well site where we will spend the day
on Lake Michigan swimming and playing. Afterwards we will take the short hike
back to our main site for the Friday evening activities.
