Alpengirl – Teen Adventure Camp

Alpengirl appeals to campers and parents who are seeking a bit more adventure than what they may have already experienced at their local residential summer camp, yet not as challenging or intimidating as other wilderness expeditions. Adventure is our main objective and fitness is an integral part of our adventures. Our program goal is to realize the positive lifetime effects of good eating, exercise, wilderness, and friendship. Morning yoga, lots of really good wholesome food, daily adventure sports, 9:15 p.m. group entertainment, Leave No Trace wilderness living, outdoor education, and leadership development are methods of meeting our program goal. We operate in a way that is comfortable for teens. Our focus is on ENJOYMENT of each activity in order to promote a lifetime of adventure in each camper. Activities are introduced at a beginner level with capacity for additional challenges as appropriate. Self-esteem and leadership development are the two most common outcomes noticed by campers and parents after having attended Alpengirl.
