Kenwood campers receive high-quality instruction in sports, the arts, and at the waterfront. Campers travel with their bunk counselors and other boys their age to each activity, where Kenwood’s specialty staff and counselors provide individualized instruction. Every group leaves camp on at least one overnight hiking trip and one overnight canoe trip, as well as many day trips throughout the summer.

On weekends and some weeknights, Kenwood campers join the girls of Camp Evergreen for creative special events.

Activity specialists, who live with other specialists in staff housing, are hired for their teaching expertise—for their ability to find a way for every child to learn and grow.
