Explore New Adventures at Camp
Formerly known as specialty camps, Challenger Trails allow campers to sign-up for a much more in-depth experience with the programs they have grown to love over their years at Sky-Y. Campers will be able to choose one activity to specialize in during their week of camp. Every morning, Challengers will hit their trail between breakfast and lunch and then spend the afternoons with their cabin-mates or sign up for other fun activities. For more information on each Trail, see the list below.
ARCHER TRAIL
The Archer Trail takes bow and arrow to whole new levels with drills, games, time trials and shoot-outs. Learn how to take care of the equipment, practice your aim and draw and shoot from 10, 15 or even 20 yards on our newly built range. Archers will then put their skills to the test at the end of the week during a wild game of archery tag.
ARTIST TRAIL
The Artist Trail will spend their first day learning about different styles of art. From Charcoal and Pastel to Ceramics and Paint, these campers can work on one large project or explore any and every medium available. Artists will get to explore the outdoors and find the right spot in camp to paint, sketch or illustrate their favorite view. The Artist Trail ends with the campers creating a mural or artistic piece as a decoration for camp.
CLIMBER TRAIL
Each day, the Climber Trail will reach new heights. Tower, High Ropes and Swing are just the beginning. Climbers will learn how to tie climbing knots, build their own challenges on the ropes course, and end the week rock climbing in the boulders.
ENGINEER TRAIL
The Engineer Trail offers a variety of leatherwork and wood carving projects. After keepsakes have been made, the crafty will start to build different pieces of a much bigger piece. The Trail ends with a scavenger hunt for the final pieces of their machine. The scavenger hunt ends with a spectacular competition between these engineered creations.
HORSEBACK TRAIL (SADDLE CLUB)
The Horseback Trail allows campers to be with the horses and wranglers every day at camp. Horseback Trail campers will not only go on multiple trail rides, but will also learn about the care of horses. From cleaning and feeding, to saddling and bridling; these campers will experience what it’s like to be a real wrangler. Throughout the week, the Horseback Trail will also learn the parts of a horse, different breeds and all types of horseback activities.
MEDIA TRAIL
Journalists will get a chance to explore all types of media. They will get to DJ camp at our new radio station. They also gather stories and investigate the traditions of Camp Sky-Y. They will have photography classes with a photo scavenger hunt Finally, they will get to be a part of camp’s weekly filmmaking program. Journalists will choose which of these skills is their favorite and work on a project that captures their week of camp.
