Roughing It Day Camp - Outdoor Explorers Day Camp

One-week Adventures at the Lafayette Reservoir! Outdoor Activities include: fishing, boating, hiking, sports, games, crafts and nature. Campers are grouped in mixed age and gender groups, with groups for older and younger campers. They will spend about half their day with their group and the other half in daily choice periods to choose the activities they want to do. Outdoor Explorers' group counselors organize and teach outdoor group and choice activities, while Roughing It Waterfront Staff- all lifeguard certified- provide boating & fishing instruction and supervision and Reservoir Staff provide nature & crafts instruction. After a week at OE, campers feel connected to nature, know how to safely enjoy outdoor activities, and have a deeper appreciation of the environment.
