Come to Camp Chippenstock! If you’re looking for happy summer memories that will last a lifetime. Camp Chippenstock is for you! We provide fun and meaningful activities for young people aged 12 through 17. Our campers choose from a wide variety of interesting activities led by an enthusiastic staff, some of whom were once Chinppenstock campers themselves. Because we are a day camp. Camp Chippenstock is more affordable than many other camps. Read on to find out how you can participate. Camp Chippenstock is surrounded by pine trees, hills, streams, and a large lake. Counselors (辅导员) and assistants here are friendly, caring, and experienced. Each year we get letters from satisfied campers like this one from Tommy Molina: “Camp Chippenstock is a great place to be in the summer. It’s everything you’d expect a camp to be and then some. I had a great summer, met a lot of cool people, and learned to paddle (划船) a canoe, I am definitely coming back next summer.”

•Swimming: Visualize(看得见) yourself swimming or diving into a crystal clear pool. Whether you are a beginner or already swim like a fish, we’ll find a class for you.

•Team Sports: Choose from softball, soccer, basketball, and volleyball. Fridays are game days – hot dogs and all!

•Hiking: See the most beautiful hiking trails in the area and learn about animal tracks, bird calls, and native plants.

•Canoeing: Glide across the lake or paddle up a stream. You can also take part in all – day canoe trips or weekly races.

•Crafts: Express your creative side by learning to work with wood, leather, and clay.

•Photography: Learn how to get the pictures you want and how to develop them. Taking good pictures isn’t as simple as it seems, even in this magnificent setting. Bring your own camera or use one of ours.
