Activities
Our Cabin Counselors offer a wide range of traditional summer camp activities ranging from newcomb, capture-the-flag, to water activities on beautiful Lake Dunmore, like canoeing and kayaking to exploring nature on-campus. The range of activities is limited only by safety and the creative ideas of our staff.
Evening activities include capture-the-flag, blob tag, campfire skits, s’mores and songs, attendance at our faculty concerts, and star gazing.
Water Activities
With 450 feet of lake frontage, Lake Dunmore beckons. We offer canoeing, kayaking, and swimming on our lake. Certified lifeguards supervise all swim periods. And the water isn’t cold, really.
N’Arts and Crafts
Creative expression is definitely encouraged at Point CounterPoint. The NArt (Nature + Art) Barn is a good place to let your creativity loose to make giant monsters out of cardboard, a white ash painting, gnome homes, interpretive art or something you decide to create from nature.
Nature Nurture
Nestled amidst the beauty of Lake Dunmore’s shoreline and nestled at the base of the Green Mountains, Point CounterPoint offers an ideal environment for connecting with nature and fostering a deeper reverence for the natural world that envelops our camp. Activities like boating and swimming in the pristine lake allow campers to experience the marvels of the natural world up close, instilling a sense of responsibility toward our physical environment. With nature right at our doorstep, the camp’s musicality is further enriched.
Sports
Favorite sports at camp include knock-out basketball, ping-pong, ultimate frisbee, newcomb, soccer, badminton, pick-up games and tournaments. Early morning runs/jogs and lake dips are offered.
Drama
Campers have numerous opportunities to be dramatic and are called into action for campfires, evening improv games and cabin inspection. These imaginative skits are real camp traditions and provide laughter and memories.
