DescriptionBack to top

Our boys are taught to appreciate simplicity of life, values of human relations, wonders of nature, importance of self reliance, respect for our natural environment and the thrill of high adventure. A special effort is made to send every boy back home stronger in body, keener in mind, more appreciative of nature, and more noble in character. Camp Carolina is a boy's summer paradise of 220 acres nestled in Lamb's Creek Valley, and bordered by over 2 million acres of public lands.  Camp Carolina is about adventure and meeting challenges head-on. It's about simple faith that anything can be accomplished through determination and enthusiasm. It's about living fully, setting personal goals and enjoying accomplishments.

 

Our commitment to the younger boys, as well as the older ones, transcends throughout our camp program. We offer up to 10 trips out of camp each day and all age boys are eligible to experience theses adventures.   The only programs that have an age restriction are surfing, paintball and wakeboarding which are only available to boys who have completed the 5th grade.

We travel the planet in search of the finest role models, the most skilled instructors, and staff with the highest degree of moral character and maturity.  Nearly half of our first year staff arrive five weeks before campers arrive.  Our staff receives intensive training specifically in the activities they instruct, allowing us to have the most medically and professionally trained, certified camp counsellors in the country!   Applicants must go through our interview process by our administration, have a clean criminal background check, provide a minimum of three character or work references, provide us with work history, and pass a drug test.
