Camp Recky Sport Majors

Each week of camp your camper will get the opportunity to participate in 2 sports per week. These sport activities will take place between 9:30-11:30am each morning. The goal of our sport majors are to introduce your child to a variety of sports. Whether this is your child’s first time with a sport or has been playing the sport for a while, your camper will have the opportunity to learn basic skills through various drills and games. Our key focus is focusing on the basics while focusing on Sportsmanship, Teamwork, and Participation.

**While we ask all campers to try every activity first-alternative activities will be provided for those campers who are not interested in a certain sport Major**

Kitchen Time

Camp Recky will offer kitchen time for our campers, with a different theme geared toward a specific age group. This program activity is not what we formerly called Kids in the Kitchen, but a modified version of it for the summer of 2024. Kitchen time will be part of our afternoon rotation for ALL campers to have the opportunity to participate at no additional cost.

Each age group will have certain weeks they will be able to participate in basic kitchen activities. Campers who are not interested in Kitchen time will have alternative sport and recreation activities they will be able to participate in.

Is your child in need of a resume builder and community service hours? Our CIT program is the place for you! This program teaches teens to develop their leadership skills while learning what it takes to become the next Camp Recky counselor. In addition to helping lead camp activities alongside the camp counselors, each participant will have the opportunity to go through mock interviews, resume workshops and team building activities. Please see our parent guide for more information. The summer 2024 CIT Program will run from June 3 - August 2, 2024. Once enrolled in the program our CIT Coordinator will be in contact with you to collect your weekly availability within this time frame.
