North Star Camp for Boys

Every day at North Star is broken down into five periods. The first three are instructional project periods that campers have scheduled for the week. These hour and fifteen minute periods are used to learn skills, gain experience and allow campers to build confidence in areas that they want to thrive in. At the beginning of each week, every camper puts together his own schedule for his instructional activity periods. Campers are given a new schedule of six activities, broken into two 3-day blocks, based on their requests. Visit the Activities Page for information on the many program choices and how our campers select their schedules. 

Fourth period varies each day and will either be a small or large group game, all camp activity or fun and innovative one hour activity. This is often a time when we have our regular Green-White competitions and cabin challenge games.

Fifth period is what we call "organized free". This is a structured free period when most of our program areas are open to the campers. During this time our entire waterfront is open and there are additional "pickup" athletic games for campers to participate in.
