Each camper will customize their summer experience by selecting 4–week, hour–long electives to participate in 3 times per week. Electives may include tennis, swim team, dance/drama/music, sports and arts of all sorts.

The Trailblazer Arts or Trailblazer Sports track determines camp group assignment.
