What is Teen Camp?

Teen Camp is an exciting new program at Canterbury Hills Camp this summer, designed especially for our oldest campers! This nine-day, eight-night overnight session offers a unique opportunity to experience camp in a whole new way.

Campers will be grouped into units of 12, each with two dedicated cabin leaders. Together, they’ll have the freedom to create their own weekly schedule, tailored to their interests and the themes they enjoy most. While they’ll still get to enjoy classic camp activities like archery, creek walks, and arts and crafts, Teen Camp also offers a variety of specialty activities, allowing campers to explore new skills and hobbies. Plus, there are several group-wide activities that bring all Teen Camp participants together for a truly memorable experience.

Teen Camp is the perfect blend of independence, adventure, and connection with like-minded peers in an outdoor setting.

What do Teen Campers Do?

  • A 2-night Campout spent entirely in the woods around Canterbury Hills Camp
  • A half-day offsite canoeing excursion
  • A senior-camper high ropes climbing experience
  • The choice between specialty activities, like an advanced hike, or a DIY construction project
  • The opportunity to plan and host community events like Campfire and Evening Program for the rest of camp
  • An extra-long daily Siesta
  • After-dark activities, like glow-in-the-dark capture the flag, a night creekwalk, or whipping up a late-night snack in the camp kitchen

Who Can Participate in Teen Camp?

Teen Camp is designed specifically for campers in grades 8-9, but beyond the age requirements, there are no other restrictions! Whether this is your first summer at Canterbury Hills or your tenth, Teen Camp is for everyone. While there are no strict criteria for participation, all campers should be prepared for:

  • Over a week of fun, excitement, and memories
  • All the joys of camp-community living at its finest
  • An ultimate unplugged experience in nature
  • A community of like-minded and camp-loving individuals
  • Experiences and skills to help you should you choose to apply for our Leader-in-Training Program
