What's New for 2012
Wow! We are super excited about all the new activities that we’ll be doing at camp this summer. We know you will be too! Are you curious? Here’s the scoop on what we are adding for this summer.
Paddleboarding is all the rage these days. Not wanting to miss out on the fun, we have purchased several paddleboards for campers to try out. It will be great to look down into the water and see all the fish, turtles, and other cool wonders of nature. Bonus points to campers who find sunken treasure! Really, you never know.
As many of you know, we like to go big at camp. Over the years, we have added Giant Jenga, Giant Chess, and Giant Connect-Four. So obviously, we are excited to welcome the new Giant’s Ladder into our family of giant activities. So what is it, you ask? The Giant’s Ladder is the newest addition to the High Ropes Course. Campers age 13 and up will be able to try out this new element. Two or three people must use a great deal of teamwork to make their way up the ladder as it swings and sways, while they try to climb up the rungs that are several feet apart! Difficult, but wicked fun! (See One in Action)
After many requests from campers over the years, we are very happy to announce that we will be offering Yoga as a regular activity. Yoga is a great way to take a step back and relax while enhancing strength and flexibility at the same time. We are looking forward to seeing our campers amaze us by contorting themselves into some crazy positions. Okay, maybe not at the beginner level, but someday!

Some of our big purchases for this summer include our very own Dunk Tank and Cotton Candy machine. Nothing quite makes a carnival like munching on some tasty, sweet cotton candy and taking turns trying to dunk the counselors. We will also be purchasing a new Inflatable Rolling Log attachment for the Blob, which had worn out last summer after having been enjoyed by campers for many years.
Get ready for a 5th period revolution! We are gearing up to offer some very exciting, creative and new options. For those campers who prefer a low-key afternoon activity to do with friends, we will now be offering a Craft Option for EVERY 5th period. One of the many crafts we will be doing is Leather Tooling- for the first time ever at KP! A very popular craft, we expect that campers will be lining up to create their own personalized wristbands and make a lot of cool gifts for mom and dad.
Get ready for another summer filled with new, exciting activities to try. We can't wait to see everyone!
