More About Camp
Nestled along a mile of shoreline on beautiful Echo Lake, since 1936 Camp Vega has been helping girls become confident and capable young women. Vega is named after the brightest star in the summer sky. Our 300 acres of pristine forest and mile of majestic lakefront have been a summer home to seven generations of campers. Since 1975, it has been important to us as a family-owned and run business to enfold campers into Vega's circle of friendship, offering safe and exciting summers in our organized, spirited, loving community. An unusually beautiful setting with unrivaled facilities is the backdrop for our rich tradition and nurturing environment. Our goals are for your daughter to develop a positive self-image, challenge herself at new activities, and make life-long friendships. Our superb staff will help her acheive these goals, while she develops the strength and self-esteem to discover and follow her dreams.
We support your daughter in every endevour, and instill in her the benefits of group living and meaningful camp traditions. We strive to increase each girls' awareness so she may live wisely, compassionately and confidently. During summers at Camp Vega, your daughter will learn about teamwork, leadership, mutual respect, good sportsmanship, cabin harmony, camp spirit, and environmental awareness. There is ample opportunity for each girl to share her thoughts and take risks in feats she never dreamed she could accomplish.
Our personalized Activity Selection Program gives your daughter the ultimate opportunity to choose amongst our wide range of activities. This includes all land and water sports, visual and performing arts, adventure activities, and wilderness excursions. Our talented program staff will work with you and your daughter before camp, and with your daughter during camp, to create her ideal schedule. We offer the hightest level of instruction in all ages and abilities enabling girls to hone their skills. More importantly, our staff members are fine role models exemplifying integrity, kindess and compassion.
