Academic Instruction
Academic instruction in mathematics and reading is provided by experienced teachers. Although the curriculum is not designed to replace what the campers receive during the school year, nontraditional activities are created to target skills believed to be essential to all young people. The goal is to enrich learning and to encourage students to embrace academics during the summer break but not to replace a summer school experience.
Basketball Instruction
Basketball instruction is provided by veteran coaches who focus on fundamentals and skill work, team cohesion, conditioning, and sportsmanship. Instruction takes place in our beautiful Shimada Athletic Center where the FCS Basketball teams play.
League Basketball Play
The afternoon is devoted to league basketball play. We have three leagues, Lower, Middle, and Upper, where campers are grouped by grade which each have four teams that rotate throughout camp. Counselors serving as referees and coaches during league games. In these games, we foster teamwork, hustle, and sportsmanship.
Recreational Period
After the instructional periods, the camp breaks for an extended recreational period. A free swim is offered or campers may choose to “shoot around” in the gym. Both facilities are well supervised, including a certified lifeguard on duty at the pool and a full-time athletic trainer in the gymnasium at all times.
