Camp Quinebarge

About Camp Quinebarge

Camp Quinebarge is a traditional, welcoming summer camp in every sense, from the moment you come on camp you can feel history on display all around you. For over 80 summers, campers have spent their time outdoors and play all day in activities designed to help them grow, become more confident, and learn life skills all while having the times of their lives.

Everywhere you look at Quinebarge, you can see traces of the past, connecting generations of campers. From the earliest plaque in the Dining Hall, to Monkeytown, USA, and our Friendship Circle every night, the sense of our intentionally inclusive community and history reaches everyone.

Camp Quinebarge offers a wide-ranging, exciting and robust residential summer camp program for children from 6-16 years old. Our program includes a diverse set of activities, lots of cabin time to make friends and bond as a group, and special activities like trips, camp outs and much, much more.

From 9am-1pm and 4-5:30pm each day campers participate in activities they select each week. Activities are all co-ed, and a majority of the activity schedules are determined according to individual camper choices.

* Horseback Riding lessons are available daily under the supervision of our qualified instructors. After campers have learned to care for their horses and to demonstrate proficiency in the ring, trail rides on our extensive trail network offer an extra challenge.

* Arts & Crafts, Ceramics, Wood Shop and Drama offer campers unlimited creative possibilities. We specialize in both traditional and eco-friendly handicraft activities, challenging campers to create projects they will take home and remember their camp experience all year long.
