With an expansive 1,800-acre campus, Culver presents a smorgasbord of over 65 electives. From horseback riding to USSailing certifications, from athletics to crafts, and from fine arts to academics, this camp has it all. A dash of nature courses, scouting, and aeronautics adds to the vibrant palette of activities. With this diverse array of options, children can explore interests, foster new friendships, and grow as individuals in a six-week leadership camp environment.
Culver is not just a summer camp; it's an institution, a trailblazer in the industry. It promises a summer brimming with fun and rewarding accomplishments. Operated by the esteemed Culver Academies, which also houses the Culver Military Academy and Culver Girls Academy, the camp carries a legacy of independent, preparatory college boarding schools dating back to 1894 and 1971, respectively.
At Culver, summer isn't just a season; it's an adventure, an opportunity, and a stepping stone towards self-discovery and lifelong friendships. It's where memories are made, and where children step out of their comfort zones and rise to new challenges. And that, indeed, is the essence of a truly enriching summer experience.
