For Campers 11-16 years old.

A chance for our seasoned “CaHiToites” to try something new and different, and an opportunity for our DASHers and CITs to kick back, relax, and enjoy a week of just being campers! A unique and adventurous Camp Fire experience! Campers will take three field trips. During the other two days, campers will participate in a variety of traditional camp activities at a higher difficulty and skill level. There will only be 11 openings for each session. One week before each week a schedule will be sent out to parents with details for the week. Drop Off & Pick Up is located at Camp CaHiTo, 3101 Balboa Drive, San Diego, CA.

Program

A typical day begins with all Campers meeting at their Color Groups.  At 9:05 am, all groups will head to the Stage Area for Songs, Skits & Games.

Campers are then each called up by their counselor into a small group of children of the same age, with whom they will spend the entire session. Camp CaHiTo is a “group-centered” camp – meaning that our campers have the same counselor and peer group for the duration the camp session. Group-centered camping gives children the best opportunity to experience the powerful feeling of belonging, to make and keep new friends, and to connect with their counselors.

Campers in this program will take three field trips. During the other two days, campers will participate in a variety of traditional camp activities at a higher difficulty and skill level. Activities include Archery, Hiking, Low Ropes, Swimming, Art and Crafts, Fort Building, Organized Games and more.

We invite you and your child to come and check us out at one of our Upcoming Meet & Greets.
