Senior trips Program
Love the camp experience but want more adventure? Mohawk's Senior Trips program might be perfect for you. For new and returning campers ages 14 to 15, join the Day Trips or Cape Cod Trip Senior Camp. The perfect combination of our traditional camp program and off-camp adventure.
Cape Cod
This program features one week in camp pursuing traditional camp activities and five days during the second week on Cape Cod.
During your week there, you will have the chance to try the best that the Cape has to offer! Try sea kayaking along the coast of the Atlantic and take surf lessons with the seals. See the sights in Province town and visit the Pilgrim Monument, and then climb aboard Dolphin Fleet for whale watching. Ride a bike to the famous Coast Guard beach to enjoy a game of volleyball or just relax to the sound of the waves. Participants will be staying at the beautiful Eastham Youth Hostel.
This amazing opportunity has limited space so avoid disappointment – Sign up now!
Only available Session 2S (July 7 to July 20) and Session 3S (July 21 to August 3).

Day Trips
Participants in the Day Trips Senior Program enjoy the first week of each two-week session enjoying the traditional camp activities of their choosing, as well as a variety of evening activities such as trips to town to the movies and ice cream. The second week of each session is spent on day trips and excursions away from camp. The following trips are tentatively planned for Summer 2013:
- Rock climbing on St. John's Ledge in Kent, CT

Seniors live in cabins with up to seven campers and one counselor. Seniors will enjoy an opportunity to develop cooperative skills, form new friendships, learn new skills, and relax with friends in a peaceful atmosphere.
