One-Week Sessions

A Smaller, Simplified Program

 We have more limited staff for these special weeks of camp, so we keep enrollment lower. This smaller camp means a cozier vibe. We still infuse some campy fun, but it doesn't have all the bells & whistles of our Wildfolk Classic program. 

​

Camper Teams

Campers are placed in grade-level Homebase Teams

You'll be emailed the weekend prior to camp with your child's Team assignment and Guides. Teams are typically 12-18 campers (increasing ratio with age), with 2 Guides and sometimes a GIT. We keep intentionally small ratios to provide emotional support to campers and be truly present with our kids. 

We maintain a 6:1 ratio with Kinders (sometimes smaller). We scale up for older kids, with 10:1 being the max for tweens. 

 

 Activity Hubs

During Winter, Spring, & some Summer weeks we only have a short time together, so we give the kids what they really want-- free-range at camp! 

 Instead of Electives, we provide simpler Activity Hubs-- areas with a few activity options under our Guides supervision. 

It's less project-focused and more explorative.

At Tinker Hub, for example, we set-up high-end robotics stations, STEM challenges, and legos & tinker toys that campers can rotate through.

Old School Campy Fun

We hear from parents a lot that Wildfolk reminds them of the camps they went to as a kid

We infuse a lot of traditions and rituals from camps our staff attended as kids...Morning Ceremony with camp songs & team challenges, a huge Water Day that feels like backyard Hurricane Harbor, huge camp games played with the entire camp, themed Funky FriYAY surprises that encompass the magic of summer, Where's Winston/Winnie Fox, Lip Sync Battles, etc

​

Camp Wildfolk is what childhood summer joy should feel like- wild & free!
