The Units
We divide our camp into 5 specific units based on the ages of our campers. Find out what unit your camper is in.
The Activities
We pride ourselves in offering an enormous range of activities and programs to our campers. We also tailor these programs as best we can to the specific skills and ages of our different campers. Walden has a variety of water sports, land sports, and arts and crafts programs. Our counselors are always encouraging when teaching campers new activities. At Walden we believe our activities are an important part of the development of our campers’ social, creative, and athletic skills.
Health and Safety
At Camp Walden, our first priority is keeping our campers safe. We make sure all of our counselors are well informed about safety policies and procedures as well as standard health and first aid treatment. We have a doctor and four nurses on staff at all times so that you can rest assured your child is being well looked after.
