Ages 8-11

New in 2022: Track Programs!

Discovery Camp is our weeklong camp for ages 8-11. A good portion of our campers fall into this age range. All Discovery campers participate in our base camp, which is a wide range or programs and activities with campers their own age. Specialty camps, such as horses or night owls have separate programming layered on top of base camp. Campers will participate in arts and crafts, swim in the pool, jump off the “ROCK”, canoe and standup paddleboard in the lake, and work on their aim with slingshots and archery. The Christian theme of the week is shared in the morning, evening, and in Bible study each day by our staff and Chaplains who volunteer their time to Camp Monroe each week. We fill every waking moment with love and laughter and share in Christ’s spirit together each week.

Discovery campers are allowed to return for more than one session if they wish! While base camp remains the same each week, we promise no two weeks of camp are the same!

Base Camp Description: Enjoy the best that camp has to offer for a whole week. This camp discovers the joy and wonder of the outdoors while building friendships that last a lifetime. Whether it’s your first time to camp or you’re a seasoned camper, you can’t go wrong here!

Night Owls: This camp is for the campers who like late mornings and late evenings, along with a little extra night time adventure. Night Owls get all the fun of summer camp plus a few extra surprises after dark!

Track Programs: 

Our camp sessions are weeklong, starting each Sunday and ending the following Friday for ages 8-16. All campers will get the opportunity to participate in our Base Camp program, which is a sampling of everything Camp Monroe has to offer. Families will then get to choose a track for their camper to help plan programming that may be better suited to their personality.

We have three tracks to choose from:

1. Adventure Track – for the camper who has tons of energy and loves rollercoasters, this track guarantees that the camper will get to spend every day in the giant swing, zip line, race up our climbing tower, and complete our high ropes course challenge.

2. Imagination Track – for the camper who loves arts and crafts and loves hands on experiences building and creating, this track guarantees the camper will spend every day on projects such as jewelry making, creating paper, learning cooking skills, and taking home their accomplishments to share with their families.

3. Sampler Track – for the camper who can never make up their mind, this track offers an opportunity to do everything Camp Monroe has to offer: adventure elements, craft elements, water sports, and all the games in between.

Regardless of the track chosen by the family, all campers will get the opportunity for small and large group games, time in the pool, time on the water toys in the lake, Bible study and worship. The tracks help guide the camper into setting themselves up for a week of success at Camp Monroe. The Christian theme of the week is shared in the morning, evening, and in Bible study each day by our staff and Chaplains who volunteer their time to Camp Monroe each week.
