Questions?

What if camp ran on a completely different schedule? Night Owls does exactly that — and middle schoolers absolutely love it. This week, the whole day flips. Campers sleep in, ease into their afternoons, and then come alive after dark when the real fun begins.

Every night brings something new: glow-in-the-dark games that take over the whole camp, late-night swims, midnight snacks, and activities that feel completely different under the stars than they ever would in daylight. The week builds toward one of the most talked-about moments in any camp summer — a sunset hike atop Bearwallow mountain, an experience that’s equal parts breathtaking and unforgettable.

But what campers remember just as much as the activities is who they experienced them with. There’s something about staying up late together, laughing in the dark, and sharing a midnight snack that bonds a group of middle schoolers faster than almost anything else. New friendships form quickly here — and they tend to last.

Night Owls is the week that feels like a secret. Campers who’ve done it want to come back. Those who haven’t yet wonder what they’ve been missing.
