A program badge for Adventure Mini Camp

The perfect way to "try us out" or fit Camp Kitaki into your busy summer! You choose Sunday through Wednesday, or Wednesday through Saturday. Be prepared for a schedule packed with structured age-appropriate, traditional camp activities and staff specially trained for your child's age group to create a great camp experience. Some highlights include plenty of swim time, archery, and opportunities to grow personally while making new friends. This is a way for new campers to try camping for just half a week.

Adventure Mini Camp Details

Schedule

Adventure Mini Campers get to sample the magic of Kitaki in a half week program designed to allow for increased connection to the counselors and more time to rest after a day filled with adventures that spark their imagination and encourage them to explore the world around them. Adventure Mini Campers spend all day with the same cabin group with counselors specially trained to help them make new friends and feel comfortable being away from home. In addition to trying out many of the summer camp activities, Mini Campers take part in a special Mini Camp campfire and a special lake time just for them.

*Mini Campers do not experience all of the activities that a full week camper would.

Sessions starting on Sunday will check in midafternoon during regular check in, and sessions starting on Wednesday will check in late afternoon. On the last day of the program, check out will be mid-morning. More details on check in will be emailed with the Parent Guide towards the beginning of May. 

Lodging

Adventure Mini Campers stay in the air-conditioned camper cabins located nearest to the Dining Hall and main camp area. Each cabin has a bathroom located inside, 15 beds in a generous space, and an attached porch. Each cabin will house 10 campers, 2 staff, and a teen volunteer.
