Camp Overview
Aloha’s mission is to empower girls to discover and become the person they want to be, in - and for - the world. We do this by offering excellent staff committed to our mission, a strong, positive community with powerful traditions, leadership opportunities, a simple lifestyle, and outstanding programs in creative and performing arts, canoeing, sailing, rowing, kayaking, swimming, biking, and camping. As our brochure describes…
“For more than 110 summers, girls from the world over have shared the magic of Aloha, surrounded by pine forests, sunlit meadows and Lake Morey’s sparkling waters. Aloha is a traditional sleep-away camp in Vermont for teen girls who love living simply in nature, learning new skills and making fabulous friendships. But Aloha is no ordinary summer camp: it’s a caring, learning community where every young woman discovers her own personal strengths and best self. It’s also fun, every day and every night!”
STAFF TIME OFF
Staff are given 5 days off over the course of the summer. They can explore the surrounding area with other counselors. We make drivers and vans available. Once campers go to bed at 8:30 pm, counselors have the evenings off to hang out.
