Teen Adventures

In a Nutshell

 

Our half-day adventure (8:30AM - 1:00PM) engages teens, ages 14 to 16, in a variety of outdoor experiences that are both fun and highly educational.  Teen Adventures is a five day program that runs Monday thru Friday.

 

Our enthusiastic staff lead campers on mountain biking, kayaking and standup paddleboarding (SUP), rope course adventures, camp olympics and a beach day. Frisbee golf, snorkleing jumping off "Jaws Bridge" and creative competitions are just a few of the other activities included that suit their interests.

 

Throughout each day, campers learn about the different ways in which we all impact our environment and about how they can "leave no trace" when enjoying our natural world. Not only do they enjoy learning about the plants and animals of Martha's Vineyard, they also have a chance to get exercise, make friends, and try something new!

Activities

Mountain Biking

Experience Mountain Biking by traveling on the rustic bike trails in the State Forest

Here, students will experience vast terrain opportunities ranging from dirt to sand to paved trails to single track and more. The combination of adrenaline, learning, and sweeping vistas makes this an unforgettable day!

Beginning with an introduction to paddling strokes and kayak safety, the adventure is ready to commence in Sengekontacket Pond. Embarking on a variety of water obstacle courses and challenges, like kayaking ultimate frisbee, allows us to test our skills. Once comfortable and looking savvy, the group will reach the “Jaws Bridge.” Here people can choose to take the plunge or explore the vast amount of marine life.

Ropes Course

Fly through the air on the high-rope, work as a team on the low-rope and climb the tower, there is something for everyone.

 

We start the day by preparing with team building games and activities. Then we head to the challenge where each camper will choose what they feel most comfortable doing. Whether it going for the swing shot or climbing to the top of the climbing wall or just playing around on the elements a foot off the ground, this day has something for everyone. With certified instructors and top of the line equipment each person will feel safe at all time.

Beach Day

Campers are welcome to play games on the sand, hit the water for some boogie boarding, hike the nature trails, hunt for seashells, or nap in the midday sun.  Nearby ponds offer nesting sites for shorebirds, as well as prime habitat for elusive osprey and eagles.  With so many options, it is difficult to know what to do first!

Olympics

Why wait every four years? Light the torch for the Adventure Camp Olympics!

 

We Once the teams are divided, the flags are hung, the cheers are made, and face paint is on, we let the games begin! Embarking on the quest to be the worlds best, each team joyfully battles through friendly competitions of small grou games, team sports, individual challenges, and the ultimate capture the flag.  Each team member has an essential role to reaching the finish line.  It's a day that everyone will get the GOLD!
