Core Activities
Campers have the opportunity to participate in most activities shown below. It is impossible to do everything in a one week session!
Frontier Campers choose to participate in 2 activities each day and participate in a “club activity" of their choosing all week.
Main and Ray Bean participate in an overview of many activities on the first day of camp and then choose two of the following activities as their focus for the remainder of the week. In addition, each day campers choose one more activity to try.
Waterskiing/Wakeboarding/Kneeboarding/Barefooting
With a premier skiing progression program and Possum Kingdom Lake at our disposal, we offer instruction on anything from elementary kneeboarding to skiing with no skis!
Sailing
There is nothing more peaceful than sailing out on the open lake. Learn the foundations of sailing on our fleet of Sunfish, and progress to sailing dingies and ultimately learning to sail the Hobiecat!
Horseback Riding
We love our four-legged staff, and they will love you! Ride the trails around camp's 865 acres, From safety around horses and a trail ride, to basic horseback skills, you can continue to challenge yourself to new and more complex skills and knowledge about horses.
Archery
Thwack! The arrow makes the most wonderful sound when it hits the target! Channel your inner Robin Hood or Katniss while learning proper form, safety, and care.
Riflery
Bang! Pow! Hone your stationary target skills and learn proper gun technique, care, and safety while learning on our single-shot 22s.

Drama
Hark a lark! The ability to have access to the costume closet is reason enough to choose Drama! Work on a skit during the week to perform at campfire. (p.s. We're always looking for items to add to the costume box. Old cheerleader uniforms, sports uniforms, prom dresses, hats, period clothing... think of CGS when getting rid of these types of items.)
Cheer & Dance
Cheer and Dance is non-stop fun! You will work on a piece all week and then perform it at campfire. You go girl!
