Why camp overnight at Skyline?? 

It’s easy to make friends when you jump into a safe circle of peers supported by counselors and stay awhile. Once you unpack your bags and set up your bed for the week, the teambuilding begins. Our counselors come from Michigan and from different countries around the world to connect with you, learn from you and care for you. Come out and find your little cabin in the woods; about 6 to 9 campers and 1 or 2 counselors share each cabin. Our campers find that unplugging from their lives at home and devices and jumping into the adventure of camp gives them new opportunities for growth, learning and fun. 

There are many choices to be made each day. Where will your cabin choose to go for Cabin Choice each morning? Which Scatter will you choose? Scatters change each day; you pick this activity as an individual. Scatter options may include Archery, Goat walking, Soccer, Tree Climbing, Journaling, Low ropes Course, Fishing, Boating, Gardening, Farm visits, Garden Tea Party, Football, Cooking, Shelter Building, Karaoke, Drumming, Fire Building, Yoga, Wetlands Exploration, Pond Dipping, and more. Sometimes choices can be hard, but we believe in the power of compromise and the learning that comes with it. 

In the afternoons, overnight campers have a few hours to move between the Pool, the Makerspace and the Zone. You can choose on your own or decide with your friends. You may want to cool off in the pool for the afternoon, or perhaps spend time dreaming up a project and then creating it in the Makerspace. Some campers like to start off in the free play Zone, either in the trees or on the Sports Courts, and then cool off in the Pool. Whatever you choose, it’s up to you, so it will be a good afternoon! 

Another reason overnight camp is unique is because we serve campers from further away since their families don’t have to drive every day. That means overnight campers come from cities and towns all over Michigan, Illinois, Ohio, Canada and other countries! We learn a lot in a week in a cabin laughing, playing and even snoring with friends who we could not meet without camp bringing us together. 

We all thrive when we spend time in nature. Running or even rolling down hills, building fires and shelters, climbing trees, catching a fish or a firefly, picking flowers, connecting with animals and watching the sun set every night are the experiences our campers have at Skyline.

So pack your bags and join us as we connect to each other, ourselves and the earth this summer.
