Bluebird Unit	Grades 1-4 Inni-Mini campers Theater Camps - All Grades Sleep like a bird in a giant-sized birdhouse straight out of a dream. If you are going into the first or second grade, you could hike and sing all day long. Paddle boats around the bay and if you get too hot, take a swim in the lake (or should we say birdbath?) Enjoy an overnight somewhere special in camp and cook a meal over a wood fire that you helped build. You'll stay busy while you make arts and crafts, play games, sing songs, laugh, giggle and learn about nature. You'll like being a Bluebird!
Corral Unit	Grades 1-4  As you might guess by the name, this Western theme unit is the starting point for fun adventures. Besides the singing, crafts, and playing, you and your friends will do much more! Hike to fun new places. Laugh and learn while earning your ranks in the rowboats and Funyaks. Perhaps row a boat to Echo Bay and sleep on the beach; cook a one-pot meal over a fire. Challenge yourself and cabin mates with awesome team-building activities on the Clover Patch or at the Low Ropes Course, and if brave enough, fly like an Osprey on the Giant Swing.
Alpine Unit	Grade 5 Live in a Swiss shelter and sing all day long in your mountain home. Paddle a 10-person war canoe down lake for an overnight to sleep under the stars and cook meals over a fire. Swim off the sandy shores with your new friends and paddle an ocean kayak. Aim to improve your archery skills. Have a blast unraveling a human knot and other challenges on the Low Ropes Course. Swim, boat, hike, play and laugh all week!
Connemara Unit	Grades 6-7 In this Irish haven "the highest unit in camp", the Connemara campers live in 2- story towers.

Sharpen your archery skills and earn ranks. Test your personal limits on the high elements of the Ropes Course (must be 12 years old & at least 4'10"). Fun, friends, laughter and adventure are yours when you're surrounded by deep Irish green!
Trees Unit	Grade 8 It's time to branch out and gain new friends and experiences while sleeping in your lofty tree house. Challenge yourself and take a ride on the better-than-ever Zip Line at the High Ropes Course (must be at least 4'10"). Harness the wind and ride the sailboats and windsurfers. Work on ranks in archery and canoeing...quite an achievement! Bake a cake or whatever strikes your fancy over an open fire and increase those outdoor skills on an overnight.
