Seniors have a unique experience at Waukeela, where they continue to have our fantastic counselor role models, but also have the opportunity to practice their own leadership skills as the oldest campers.
We have three age groups in Senior Alley that are all named after the beautiful trees in our camp. Blue Spruces are in 8th and are between 13-14. Our Silver Birches are in 9th grade and are between 14-15, whilst our oldest campers are our Scotch Pines who are in 10th grade and are between 15-16.
Seniors are the leaders of camp and are given more freedom and responsibility throughout the Waukeela experience. Seniors swim once a day and then receive three different ‘choosing’ moments every day in which they get to participate in a broad range of activities, which allows them an opportunity to grow and build advanced skills within their passion areas. Seniors serve as role models to our Juniors and are given leadership opportunities throughout the summer.
