2022 GSHNJ Summer Camp Guide

Page 8

Day Camp General Programs are specially designed for each grade level, and give campers the chance to try a bit of everything we have to offer. Since most activities are girl-led, each session's schedule is similar, but girls help decide what they'll do each day, making each week new and different. The programs listed below are offered at both Camp DeWitt and The OVAL.

Day Camp Specialty Programs are carefully curated for age, interest, and abilities. Part of each day focuses on activities aligned with the specialty area; the rest is filled with enjoying camp-wide activities like field games, arts & crafts, hiking, outdoor cooking, and more. The programs listed below are offered at Camp DeWitt.
