During the day, you’ll find activity areas for almost every interest including lake sports, performing arts, marksmanship, action sports, outdoor living, crafts and more all of which will teach you new skills and develop your confidence. Programs include Adventure Camp, Horselovers Camp, Wilderness Camp and Whitewater Adventure trips. Carefully selected and trained staff accompany campers at all times at a 1/6 ratio to give your camper the attention they deserve. We’ll close out each day at fireside with great skits songs and music, and with a look at how God loves each of us. You’ll get to know God in a new and fresh way, and learn that He loves you for who you are without condition or limitation! At Pleasant you’ll find a warm feeling that comes from our special brand of camping, a place where you can shine from the inside out!

Summer Camps

With nature as the touchstone for each workshop, the Conservatory’s summer programs allow children to gain hands-on experiences exploring the natural world through the lens of science and the arts.  Each workshop is planned around a theme and includes age appropriate and enriching activities. 

Several new topics/experiences are planned for camps this summer, including a glass blowing workshop for 16-18 year old students and a special camp to accompany the Conservatory’s exhibition Savage Gardens, opening July 10, 2010!  Popular half-day camps for preschool and kindergarten students are again available as well as full-day camps for 1^st-8^th grade students.
