What campers and parents are saying
La Vida Adventure Camp
Activities
We believe that campers have the most fun when they feel valued, have a positive self-identity, and have opportunities to grow in character. Our program is designed with a deeper goal in mind–not to simply entertain our campers– but to help them see their own potential and learn to care for others.
Team Building
Campers will discover the strengths of each group member as they problem solve and work together to tackle challenges.
High Ropes Course
With the help of trained staff, campers reach new heights on our newly built high ropes course in the scenic Gordon woods.
Rock Climb
Campers will build strength and challenge themselves as they climb at our indoor rock gym or outdoors at our offsite location.
Mountain Biking
Campers will get outfitted by an experienced mountain bike specialist and explore the miles of trails on-site and in the neighboring Chebacco Woods.
Waterfront
Campers will have fun splashing around on Gull Pond while they kayak, canoe and cool off on warm summer days.
Nature Explorer
Adventure Camp is situated on 485 wooded acres, with waterfront access to Chebacco Lake and five freshwater ponds. Campers will learn new nature facts and explore the woods in a way they have never done before.
