Camp Brodie 2016
Camp Brodie offers a fun-filled traditional summer camp option for children
ages 3-14. Our campers become part of a dynamic camp family where they can
explore nature, their artistic and athletic abilities, interact with friends they know, as
well as make new friends, all while escaping the ever growing technology age and
rediscovering their inner child. Each week there are different themes to keep camp
fun and interactive, as well as field trips and special guests to experience. For
campers looking for something a little more specialized, a specialty camp may be
what you are looking for to enhance your child’s summer experience or interests.
Regular Camp Brodie
Traditional Camp Brodie is our traditional camp program designed for children ages 5-12 and
entering Kindergarten—6th grade in the fall. Campers will participate in a variety of activities—art,
field games, court games, hikes, canoeing, beach time, cooking, scavenger hunts, obstacle courses,
lifeguard / beach games, minute to win it contests, and more!
