Great Summers Start at Camp Tockwogh!

3-Day Mini-Camp (Grades K-5)

This 2 night, 3-day program is a great way to introduce your camper to overnight summer camping. Designed for new and younger campers, Mini-Camp offers a higher staff-to-camper ratio than our traditional summer camp.

During their time here, campers will be able to sample all of the activities that camp has to offer. They will be watched closely and cared for by our staff, ensuring a safe, enjoyable transition into overnight camping.

What makes Mini-Camp different?

Mini-camp provides a fun and nurturing introduction to overnight camp for our youngest campers. We offer smaller cabin groups and a higher staff to camper ratio to ensure each camper gets the support needed to have a great first Tockwogh experience!

For many, Mini Camp is the first time our campers have been away from home for an extended period of time. We know how difficult that can be for parents/guardians and work hard to address the common feelings our littlest campers experience, aiming to alleviate any initial nerves or homesickness. Camp leadership and behavioral specialists work side-by-side with cabin counselors to ensure our campers are happy and comfortable.

Mini-camp has proven to help young campers develop courage, strengthen social skills in a diverse group setting, and learn responsibility that goes along with independence.

 

MINI CAMP 2023 SCHEDULE

At mini-camp, cabin groups move around to activities together. They get the chance to sample much of what Tockwogh has to offer!

Mini-campers will get to swim in the pool, make some arts & crafts, and adventure in the Chesapeake with boat rides and tubing.
