Boys' Adventure & Leadership Weekend
December 2-3, 2023
Join other boys (ages 11-14) for a weekend of fun while building leadership skills at our beautiful 268-acre Blairstown Campus located near the Delaware Water Gap National Recreational Area in New Jersey. Learn to build your confidence, overcome your fears, take healthy risks, work cooperatively, and creatively solve problems as a team while you climb our high ropes elements, construct catapults, and build fires!
The weekend includes four professionally-prepared, healthy meals plus snacks, all programming costs, and lodging in rustic log cabins complete with bunk beds and gas or wood stoves. Nearby wash houses provide clean, modern facilities with hot water and showers. Depending on how many sign up, you may be sharing a cabin with other participants/chaperones (they sleep 12 bunkbed style). We are limiting enrollment to 12 participants (and must have a minimum of 10 to run the program).
The weekend cost is $75.00 per participant and $50.00 per adult. Participants must be supervised by an adult for the entire weekend.
