Every camper attends these activities, and there is a focus on collaboration and teamwork; 3 daily meals in the lodge or outdoor pavilion with up to 60 people who create a busy, bustling, and often loud environment, with excited talking, cheering, large-group singing, and games; A screen-free environment (during work hours) in which we disconnect from cell phones, video games, and the internet.
