with activities from all over camp. You’re going to have
opportunities to master archery, canoeing, map reading,
orienteering and the 500 foot long zip line. For a bit of
extra fun, we’ll take a trip offsite to go horseback

Youth Leadership Training Program
June 30-July 3
Have you ever thought it would be great
to volunteer at camp as a Leader In Training? Then this
week is just for you! Build your leadership skills while
having fun! This short week we’ll be exploring the issues
that face you and your community, and discussing ways to
address these problems. Concepts of self awareness, team
work, communication, leadership, and diversity will be
explored. Tower, high ropes, and low ropes will all be a
part of this week. Come and learn leadership while having a
blast, and finish the week by applying to our LIT program.
DCX Survivor Week
July 7-11
Do you think you have what it takes to
make it in our survival challenge? We hope so! If you’ve
always loved the outdoors or wished that you knew more about
it, this week is for you. We will learn wilderness safety
and first aid, how to build a fire and shelter, and how to
“hunt” with a bow and arrow at archery. Don’t worry, we’ll
also have plenty of crazy survivor challenges. Thursday, we
will have a camp out where you’re skills will be put to the
test. You’ll pitch your own tent, cook over an open fire
and sleep out under the stars. On Friday morning, we will
learn how to pack up and eat an outdoor breakfast. By the
end of this week you’ll be able to survive anything!
DCX Gladiator Games Week
July 14-18
Are you ready to enter the arena? This
week you don’t have to be a gladiator, just a lover or
games. We are going to challenge you in every way you can
imagine: Ultimate Capture the Flag, Gotcha, video games,
softball, low ropes, paint ball, counselor hunts and sumo
wresting are all in store. It won’t be all guts and no
glory…prizes will be awarded for everyone. You’ll leave
this week as a DCX Gladiator.
DCX H20 Extreme Week
July 21-26
Are you tired of the heat yet? Cool
off with us during this week of water mayhem. We are going
to be wet all week long doing a great mix of water front
activities, water balloon challenges, water balloon sling
shot, canoeing and swimming. On Thursday, we will spend the
day at a water park. How about a day at an indoor pool, for
a relaxing float as we take in a movie? Sound like fun?
What are you waiting for? Call and sign up!
DCX Variety Camp
July 28-August 1
Variety is the spice of life! This
week we are going to have plenty of it! This week, we’ll go
offsite every single day! We’ll go horseback riding on
Monday, canoe the Huron River on Tuesday, and hit the
miniature golf course on Wednesday. Thursday we’ll go
roller skating, and Friday we’ll hit the bowling alley for a
few games of fun! As if that doesn’t sound fun enough, plan
on a pizza party and a cook out thrown in there for good
measure. Get a summer’s worth of adventure packed into just
one week.
Junior Zookeeper’s Week

Join us for what we do best! Whether
you’re considering a career working with animals, want to
get to know more about Nature’s fascinating creatures, or
just love to try something different, this camp is going to
be a one-of-a-king opportunity for you. Work hand-in-glove
with The Howell Conference and Nature Center’s amazing
Animal Department as you explore topics such as Wildlife
Rehabilitation, Zoology, Animal Husbandry, Zootrition,
Exhibit Design and Behavioral Enrichment through
demonstrations, tours, and hands-on visuals. “Adopt” an
animal and become an expert.
DCX
Over the Edge Extreme Week
August 11-15
Get ready for a week filled with
experiences you’ll never forget! Monday, learn the basics
of rock climbing; how to tie essential knots, how to inspect
and properly use equipment and the essentials of safe
climbing. More experienced climbers can take our belaying
class. Tuesday, put those new skills to the test as you
scale our 60-foot outdoor climbing tower. Experienced
climbers can challenge themselves as they try to beat their
own speed record or try climbing one-handed. Ride the zip,
tackle the 35-foot high North Pines zip line, the 25-foot
high South Pines high ropes course, and join us for a trip
to Base Camp Challenge Center in Flint for “real rock”
climbing and high ropes.
The
Best of DCX Week
August 18-22
Come join us as we repeat the best
times of summer. You’ll have a blast doing our high ropes
courses, taking one last zip on our zip line, and scaling
the tower for the final time this summer. We’ll also
revisit our favorite traditional camp activities, shooting
archery, canoeing and so much more. This is the best way to
close out the summer…with memories to last the whole year
through!
