Green & White
One of the most anticipated events of the summer is “Green & White,” a multi-day color war that brings the entire camp together in friendly competition. Campers are divided into two teams—Green and White—and participate in a wide range of activities that test athletic ability, creativity, teamwork, and camp spirit.
Events can include sports competitions, relay races, creative performances, and problem-solving challenges.
