Outside Adventure Camp

Camp Info

Camp Dates June 1-5 July 20-24 August 3-7 Drop-off/Pickup Times 9:00am - 4:00pm Location Rivanna River Company 1520 E High St, Charlottesville, VA 22902 For over 20 years, Virginia Outside has been running summer camps, teaching youth about the great outdoors and creating lifelong memories for both campers and staff members. Our Outdoor Adventure Camp is designed for the adventurous kiddos who are looking for variety! This camp offers a taste of all the wonderful outdoor recreation activities that Charlottesville has to offer! Throughout the week, campers will enjoy various activities that can be done along the Rivanna River and other local parks. Campers will spend a fair amount of time on or near water while fishing, paddling, and lazy river-style tubing. One morning, campers will get a brief break from the heat while indoor rock climbing at Rocky Top Climbing Gym for a few hours. They will also spend time hiking and exploring nature on foot! Before participating in activities, campers will receive safety talks to prepare them to have the most fun they can in a safe capacity. These safety talks will include topics like: Basic Environmental Hazards, River Conditions, River Hazards, River Safety, Rock Climbing Rules and Regulations, Tips and Tricks for Safe Hiking, and more! Our programs provide meaningful experiences in the outdoors where kids learn, play, and grow their confidence! --------------------------------------------- Safety is our number one priority, so all campers will wear life jackets when in the water or on a boat. We maintain a 1-to-6 counselor-to-camper ratio to ensure every camper gets some one-on-one time throughout the week to advance his or her skills. Virginia Outside provides all supplies and gear needed to participate in our daily activities. This includes all bait and tackle, fishing rods, life jackets, and good times!
