ADVENTURE PROGRAMS

Adventure Camp at St. Andrew’s Summer Programs emphasizes the empowerment of the individual as a member of a larger group, or community.  Skills which relate directly to the concepts of teamwork and leadership will be practiced using fun multidimensional exercises, by all campers and stressed by instructors daily.  Through the completion of a variety of ground, low ropes, and high ropes activities, campers will learn to more effectively communicate with their peers, begin to understand the importance of trust as it relates to community living, and begin to realize who they truly are as a person by testing or coming to know their personal limits.  Emphasis on the above skill set—the foundation of basic teamwork skills—will continue during the Paintball portion of this camp (two half days per week).  Although all campers will be strongly encouraged to participate in all activities, they will not be forced to do so—as the instructors of the camp firmly believe in the concept of Challenge by Choice.

Lifelong Adventure Camp
Ages 10 - 17, entering grades 6 - 12
July 15 - 19 • August 12 - 16, 9 am - 3 pm
$375 per week (Lunch not provided)
During this week, campers will be asked to challenge themselves mentally and physically while enjoying Rhode Island’s great outdoors.  Campers will be introduced to activities such as: rock climbing, surfing, wind surfing, kayaking, and hiking, and will spend at least one day learning about and beginning to master each one. Campers will be challenged to expand their personal comfort zones, but not forced beyond them.  Cooperative learning skills will be fostered as part of an essential, positive, group dynamic during these individualistic activities.

Paintball Camp
Ages 10 -17, entering grades 6 -12
July 29 - August 2, 9 am - 3 pm            
$375 per week (Lunch not provided)
This camp will emphasize the positive aspects of the game  by teaching sportsmanship, team work, and effective communication skills, while also improving individual activity-based skills.  These skills will be practiced daily on the playing field and their importance to the game, as well as in everyday life, will be stressed.  The “battles” enjoyed by campers will be naturally competitive, but lighthearted and fun by design – as this camp is meant to be recreational and enjoyable to all who attend.  As paintball is an active “sport”, campers will benefit in many ways from their participation in intense physical activity on a daily basis.
