Not ready for summer camp yet?
Try Pine Forest’s Explorer Program!
Join us at camp for the day! If your child is entering 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or 4th grade and is not yet ready for camp, we’d like to invite your prospective camper to share in an action-packed day at Pine Forest Camp! Your children will have the chance to participate in exciting camp activities with other prospective campers while camp is in session, the whole time being supervised by our excellent staff. While children are enjoying Explorer Camp, parents are invited to tour camp, meet with the directors, then encouraged to go out to lunch and explore the area while future campers enjoy camp for the day!
