Ease Those Opening Day Jitters by Attending Kingsley Pines Exploration Day

All new campers and their families are invited to attend our annual Kingsley Pines Exploration Day on Sunday, May 19 from 1:00 - 3:00 p.m.

Parents and campers will have the chance to see our camp facility, including activities and locations, cabins, waterfront, and much more. They will also be able to meet the Director and Owners, in addition to other staff members. This is a great opportunity for first-time campers to reduce some of their opening day jitters by becoming more familiar with camp.

Families that are not registered, but would like to learn more about Kingsley Pines are also welcome to attended.

Tours will be going on throughout the afternoon and light refreshments will be served. Also, feel free to invite any friends or family that would like to learn more about Kingsley Pines!

We look forward to seeing you!

What's New For 2013

Ever wanted to go surfing, but you weren’t able to make it to the ocean?  Now you can surf at KP!  We have purchased a wakesurf board for the upcoming summer.  You get up the same way as wakeboarding, but after you are up, you drop the rope and surf in the wake of the boat.  This will be a great new challenge for campers already comfortable with wakeboarding, and a fun new adventure for those who want to try something new. We can’t wait for you to hang ten on Panther Lake this summer!

Another new addition we are excited about is carpetball.  Carpetball is a simple but addictive game that is played with billiard balls.  Each player starts with 5 balls and you roll the cue ball down the table and try and knock your opponents balls into the pocket before they knock in all of yours.  Play it once and you’ll be hooked.  A big thanks to the maintenance department for building KP our very own carpetball table. Look for it this summer near the volleyball court.

We are taking the best of school recess and bringing it to camp.  We are creating a space on the lower tennis court for four square!  This will surely be a hit during free time, and we are currently dreaming up new ways to incorporate it into current camp activities.  Extreme four square anyone?

Great Finish to Winter Parties


While the rest of the KP crew hunkered down in Maine for Winter Storm Nemo, Angie, Drew, and Devon were on the road in sunny Florida.  The final leg of the 2013 Winter Party Tour was a huge success!  We stopped in three different cities, with nearly 60 campers attending all together. 

In Tampa and Naples we enjoyed yummy pizza, good music, and lots of bowling.  There was a great battle between “bumpers” and “no bumpers” on the bowling lanes.  For something a little different, we went ice-skating and had an epic snowball fight in Boca Raton.  The indoor ice rink was a big hit!  We want to send a huge thank you to all who attended.  You make these events so much fun every year!

While we’re sad that the 2013 Winter Parties are over, we are more excited than ever for an awesome summer of KP fun!  As always, we have new and wonderful things planned for this summer, and we can’t wait to see you all there!  If you have questions or need help with registration, you can always contact Chris at 855-799-7788 or by email at chris@kingsleypines.com.

Thanks again to all who attended and we will see you all soon!
