Our Program / A Typical Day
Timbertop Camp offers two sessions of about 18 days each. Both sessions will be similar in their design but will offer different trips and evening activities to make it a more interesting program for 5-week campers.
In general, the camp will run 5 scheduled days per week, plus 1 trip day and 1 day of special programming. The camp is naturally designed with our beautiful setting in mind and is therefore outdoor oriented.
Activities are scheduled in four areas: Adventure, Athletics, Aquatics, Arts.
