Take Your Choice
Caring ... Honesty ... Respect ... Responsibility
 |
Customize your Echo experience by choosing 3 or 4 on-camp activities each day and take a day trip to Craig's Cruisers.
"Take Your Choice is a great way for older campers to take advantage of the resources Camp Echo offers in a way that is to their liking.
Having the opportunity to live in either platform tents or the village is also really fun and different from a typical Main Camp experience."

Take Your Choice Description
|
Older one-week campers have the unique opportunity to choose different activities each day.
Based on a list the group creates the first night, individual TYCers will choose from among 3 or 4 different activities on a customized schedule each morning and afternoon.
It's still Camp Echo, but it's your Camp Echo. Evenings, TYCers will enjoy programs designed for this age group.
TYCers will take a mid-week day trip to Craig's Cruisers in Grand Rapids,
where they will spend the afternoon with go-karts, laser-tag, or mini golf. Half the TYCers live in platform tents and half live in a village cabin.
After 3 days, the two groups swap, to allow participants to experience both cabin and wilderness living.
