Camps

Coed Youth Camps provide a fun, unique camp experience geared to meet the needs of various ages through special activities and programs each day in addition to the land and ocean front activities! As you participate and enjoy the many aspects of camp life, you will meet and make new friends, have the opportunity to try new things and overcome fears. Senior Campers, ages 14-17, also have a nightly program that emphasizes team building and leadership development.

Registered campers ages 15-17 can apply to be a part of our CIT (Counselor-In-Training) program.

A transformative week focused on campers' mental, physical, and emotional development. Programing ranges from color team competitions to water sports to campfire skits and cabin time discussions. Teen Camp prides itself on creating inclusive and welcoming environment for kids from all backgrounds.

Registered campers ages 16-17 can apply to be a part of our CIT (Counselor-In-Training) program.

Family Camp at Camp Fox takes place over Labor Day weekend each year. We leave all together from the boat in Long Beach. All ages are welcome (infants under  2 require a $25.00 deposit)!  The price includes all boat transportation, lodging, meals, and activities for the weekend. Experience 3 days and 2 nights at Camp Fox as a camper, while staying with your family or friends.

It is truly a great weekend and way to disconnect from the real world and enjoy some sunshine. All the activities at Fox will be offered and open for families to make their own schedule for the weekend. Some of these activities include swimming, kayaking, stand up paddle boarding, snorkeling, high ropes course, archery, rock climbing wall, crafts, hiking, gaga pit, and tons of field and sports games! We also have a campfire each night with skits and songs and some other special programming events throughout the weekend. If you are someone who would prefer to just relax on the beach all weekend, that is fine too!

Camp Fox is a truly memorable and positive experience for our campers! Take a look at what some of our past campers have to say!
