| No matter what the background of a child, camp opens doors, exposing children to possibilities and opportunities they might never know could be theirs. |

We have always felt that activities should be both fun and instructional. The program of Brookwoods emphasizes activities that are educational and exciting, providing beyond any doubt that learning can be fun.
Personal Challenge, Growth, and Achievement
Brookwoods utilizes every phase of their camp programs in the development of camper skills and achievement. Skills are mastered not only because they are needed for success, but they are taught in such a way as to give a sense of mastery. The growth in confidence that takes place is the primary objective. Through involvement in a challenging and realistic personal growth program, campers develop independence, initiative, self-discipline, and confidence.Experienced and qualified instructors provide the inspiration for campers to walk toward sound and achievable goals. Competition is stressed, not between individuals, but in terms of competing against one’s self and observing personal improvement. Competition between groups is used to promote group closeness and the stimulation of group challenges.
