The goal is adventure! Twenty-one programs-from 6 to 26 days long-offer your child choices among ropes courses, canoeing, backpacking, rock climbing, mountain biking, kayaking, community service, leadership development, and other exciting adventures. Programs range from our popular on-site Adventure Challenge to multi-day wilderness trips in five different states. All campers, whether enrolled in Adventure Challenge or programs with off-site trips, take part in outdoor skills training, sports, crafts, community activities, waterfront adventures, and special all-camp events at Sargent Center. Campers enrolled in trip programs prepare for and wrap up their trips at Sargent Center, and participate in group teambuilding activities plus at least one high challenge activity. CAMPERS: Adventure Camp is for children and teens who enjoy challenging themselves in the outdoors. We limit enrollment to ensure an overall 1-to-5 staff-to-camper ratio, and group campers by age in living areas and activity groups. Typically, activity groups are coed with 8 to 12 campers in a group. Exceptions occur if there is an imbalance in enrollment. We want to ensure Adventure Camp is the best fit for every camper. If you are the parent of a child with special physical, mental, or emotional needs, or if your child receives the support of an aide at school, please contact us prior to registering to discuss your child's experience at camp. FACILITIES: Sargent Center is located on 700 beautiful acres of woodland in the Monadnock region of southern New Hampshire. Our site features 22 miles of trails, a large field for recreation, and a 60-acre pond with a sandy beach for swimming and water adventures. Our dining hall serves three hearty, nutritious meals daily. Campers live in cabins with bunks and convenient bathroom facilities-or in one of our two yurt villages. A modern bathhouse supports the yurts, which are round canvas structures built on wooden platforms with decks. Yurts have screened windows and doors, camp bunks, storage containers, and a skylight.
