Creating at Camp Weequahic

In a summer at Camp Weequahic, campers get dusty, muddy, covered in paint, and clothed in wonder… and that is just in the creative arts programs!

We are thrilled to offer campers interested in exploring the creative side of life many great outlets for their imaginative inclinations. Whether building in the woodshop, shaping in our pottery barn, or painting, drawing, and crafting in our arts studio, our campers tap into the creative side of things on a daily basis.

And the creative programs at Weequahic don’t just end there! Campers use their heads and hands while building new motorized contraptions in Robotics, create and stylw rockets that blast off daily in Rocketry, perform on stage in Theater, produce a weekly NewsWeeq, and jam on guitar, keyboards, and drums in Music!

For Summer 2012, we’re excited about expanding all of these programs and we’ll be introducing something new to Weequahic as well: Fashion Design!

Many families ask, “How many kids are at Weequahic only for sports or only for the arts?” The answer is about one third of the campers only want athletics and the lake activities. Another third only want the creative side of things and the lake activities. The remaining third are just as likely to be in the Theater and Woodshop as they are on the soccer team and tennis courts. That said, many of our ‘sporty’ kids wind up choosing a creative arts activity because they are a ton of fun.

So, come to Weequahic to create. We promise you’ll get dirty and have fun while doing it!
