G​irls' Ultimate Camp
Dates: 6/26-6/30 M-Fri, 9am-12pm
Cost: $150*
​This weeklong girls' ultimate camp will go over the basics of the sport of Ultimate Frisbee, including drills and skills for throwing, cutting, running, etc., as well as providing opportunities for scrimmages. This will be an empowering and celebratory week of physical fitness and wellness, specific strategies and techniques, and overall lots of fun in the sun!​

​Disc Golf Camp
Dates: 7/10-7/14 M-Th, 9am-4pm
Cost: $300*
This camp will teach campers the fundamentals of disc golf, including driving, putt & approach, as well as different kinds of discs and grips to use in different ​situations on the course. We will be traveling to a different disc golf course each day locally, using Metro Transit (Wabun, Highland, Acorn, Kaposia). The courses will increase in length and difficulty each day as each camper expands their skills and understanding of the sport of disc golf!
