Middle Camp (ages 7-8)

Mastery

Our Middle Campers have access to everything that we offer on campus. They have become accustomed to making choices and defining their experiences. They know how to work with older kids and younger kids. They have found their niche, know what they love, have developed deep relationships with staff, and walk into camp with a clear vision of what they want. Middle Camp is the beating heart of Hayground. These campers are capable of doing everything that camp has to offer, and will enthusiastically take advantage of all programs.

Collaboration

Family Time is a time where Middle Camp comes together as a division. Once a week the Manatees (7) and Seals 1 and 2 (8) plan a group activity and have a special experience outside of the schedule. For many campers, the middle years also represent their first foray into a small group act for the Follies, an original design for the Fashion Show, or a sustained effort to build and race a go-kart at the Hayground 500.
