Campus Programs
Camp Chickahominy
Camp Chickahominy offers a fun-filled, challenging day camp program for boys and girls who will enter kindergarten through fourth grade in the fall. It is open to all children, regardless of where they are enrolled in school.
Designed to provide enriched learning experiences with guidance, the three sessions of Chickahominy offer something for everyone. Camp is broken into three sessions, encompassing the spirit of summer fun and placing an emphasis on camaraderie and personal growth. Activities include arts, crafts, nature, sports, games, and outdoor adventure. Each session focuses on different aspects of each activity. Therefore, children can attend more than one session and enjoy a different program each time. Each camp session ends with a camp-sponsored picnic lunch.
Sports Camp
Powhatan offers a summer Sports Camp for children entering second through fifth grades. It is open to all children, regardless of where they are enrolled in school.
The goal of Powhatan’s Sports Camp is to learn new skills and improve on existing athletic skills in a fun and active atmosphere. Children receive instruction in many different sports, positive feedback on progress, and recognition of athletic effort. Participation in sports can greatly enhance both the physical and mental development of young children. By experiencing a wide variety of sports, children gain self-confidence in a climate of teamwork and fair play.
As each sport is introduced, time is spent on assessing and evaluating each group’s prior experience, teaching and practicing new skills, and applying these skills in a game format. All skill levels and experience levels are welcomed, and campers are grouped in order to foster teamwork, personal achievement, and friendly competition.
Sports Camp includes the following sporting activities:
- Soccer
- Volleyball
- Softball/baseball
- Flag football
- Basketball
- Floor hockey
- Archery
- Wall rappelling
In addition to sports play and instruction, campers also enjoy a swim outing to a local pool and an age-appropriate hike at a local state park during each session of Sports Camp.
