These include a “Before Camp” New York City Excursion (cancelled for 2024), whitewater rafting trips (scheduled on opening Saturday – Aug 17), as well as a 3-day Yoga Retreat or Body Electric workshop on the first weekend. We offer our standard chartered bus service to / from camp on certain days along with a linen rental package.
