Recreation

Camp has a thirty-five foot high Climbing Tower with a zip-line. Jr. High and Youth age summer campers can climb the tower and zip down. Rental groups may contract to use the tower and swing (minimum 8 people, $20/person).

The Giant Swing is a series of cables strung between two trees. One person is harnessed into the swing, while the group pulls him/her forward. The person is then released, and then swings back and forth through the air. 

The Initiative Course is a series of 10 activities designed for groups of 8-12 members. Larger groups can be split up. The purpose of the course is to promote cooperation and group building. Cost is $5/person to be led by a staff member. 

Main Lodge and Hemlock guests may use the nearby Gaga Pit, ballcourt and playground. Rising Sun, Lakeside and Campground guests can use the campground ballcourt or the beach volleyball. 

Swimming, Canoeing & Fishing are available to guests. There is a $20 - $40/hr. charge depending on group size. No charge for catch-and-release fishing. Small family and adult only groups can swim/canoe without charge.  

Camp Blue Diamond is surrounded by State Forest Land. Forest Roads are great for mountain biking, and there are hiking trails too. Hunting in season is allowed within State Forest boundaries.
