At Whitetail Resort, it is our goal that every camper enjoys an experience that will last them a lifetime. Our camp mission is to provide the ideal outdoor environment and a unique opportunity for children to learn valuable skills and make new friends through programs that are challenging, educational, and fun. We strive to create a space for young people to learn how to work as a group while gaining confidence in their unique abilities as individuals. Everyone is encouraged to try all of the activities but we respect their comfort zone. Our staff is experienced and hand picked to provide the perfect balance of fun and safety. Many of our staff are acclaimed instructors in their field of expertise.
In addition to our Kid's Adventure Camp, this summer we are offering an Outdoor Skills Camp that is geared towards older, more advanced campers. See the sections below for full descriptions of each camp.
