Fairfax Summer Camps

In 1955, Fred and Evelyn Greenberg started Timber Ridge Camp in the beautiful Shenandoah
Mountains of West Virginia. Their vision was to provide a place where children from around the country and world could have new, exciting and unique experiences in a safe and caring environment. With over 50 successful summers under the same family ownership, many camps have emulated our programming and look towards Timber Ridge as the leader in the industry.

There's something for everyone at Timber Ridge! We are known for our extensive selection of quality and diverse activities taught in an enthusiastic, fun-filled environment. Our
experienced instructors and coaches are trained to teach campers of all ability levels. Whether a camper is a beginner or an expert, every camper feels like a pro!

Over the years we have developed a welcoming culture that promotes a caring and nurturing camp family to look after the well being of every child. At Timber Ridge, we believe children experience everything camp has to offer by creating strong and lasting bonds with
their cabin mates and counselors.

Welcome to Game Camp USA by Convergenesis, Inc. (est. 2006)

Game Camp USA is a program specifically designed for gamers, especially those considering careers in interactive entertainment. As such, it makes extensive use of gaming PCs and consoles. But the campers do more than play video games; they also learn to create them.

Like other formats of narrative art, video games tell stories using words, images and sounds. Unlike other formats however, they also include rules, challenges and interactions. Development of these unique elements, collectively known as game mechanics, is the focus of the curriculum.

Played competitively are video games in the fighting, first-person shooter, racing and real-time strategy genres; and while participation is optional, the prizes make it well worth the effort.

THe summer music camp is ideal for students who would like to improve their sight reading skills, play in small ensembles, learn how to take better auditions. The camp has three levels ranging from beginners through advanced. We have many guest artists, contests, field trips. Housing is available for our out of state and international students. Come join us!
