Teen Adventure is a hybrid sports and recreation camp for teenagers.

While playing traditional sports like basketball, soccer, rock climbing and sand volleyball happen daily, campers also receive intensive instruction in kayaking, stand-up paddle boarding, and/or sailing twice a week (weather permitting). In addition to our rotation of sports and water activities we have an off-site trip every Wednesday from RPM Go karting, Urban Air trampoline park, and Rye Playland are just a few of the trip locations we visit based on availability. Lunch is provided daily for camp and on the weekly trips.
