Campers experience low-impact camping, outdoor living skills and the interdependence of a team. The weekend stayover portion of this session includes a chance to do laundry, attend mass, and have supper out. The second week of the program, campers take part in many of the regular CT clubs* and activities, especially the Awards Programs**.
