bring or rent bicycles and ride to everything on our flat campus. They may elect to go to go on bicycle hikes on Wednesdays - Hike Day - working their legs and stamina up to greater distances on and off road. On these days everyone is out of camp, climbing a mountain peak and enjoying the view, caving, canoeing, rock climbing, exploring a local brook or strolling with frequent stops to sketch and photograph the scenery.
are two three-day camping trips during the season. The first is with the cabin group and the second is by interest. Older campers use hikes to work up to a challenging trips such as bicycling 70 miles a day or canoeing in the Adirondacks.
heart of our nature program is exploring the ecosystems of the valley - pine forests, overgrown fields, wetlands and streams. We respect the land and local wildlife, garden organically and recycle as much as possible. Other activities include: electronics, video production, rocketry and weekly cookouts.
much people grow and develop during the years that they spend at Killooleet. I know that I really was able to figure out who I was and who I wanted to be. ... Camp allowed me to be myself, and find very, very close friends who like me for just being me. I became friends with people from almost all the other cabins as well. Thanks for the best summer ever."
