Blue Lake Days
Campers begin their day at approximately 6:45am by
getting up and ready for breakfast. Mornings are filled
with classes and rehearsals. After lunch, students
participate in a Minor course of their choice, or have
individual practice or rest time. Afternoon classes
and rehearsals end at 3:50pm, leaving plenty of
time for recreation, rest, and time with friends. After
dinner, evening activities conclude each day with arts
performances or camp fun. Unit Directors call lights
out with Taps.
Cool Summer Nights
Dances, all-camp sings, talent shows, theater,
carnivals, concerts, recitals, opera, ballet, master
classes, pizza parties, unit activities, camp fires...
Students experience a wide range of exciting
activities while at Blue Lake.
Recreation
During free time in the afternoon, students are
encouraged to participate in recreational activities
with other campers and staff, such as basketball,
beach volleyball, swimming, soccer, kickball, frisbee
golf, water polo, or touch football. Recreational
activities are supervised by staff members, who
often can’t help but join in the fun!
Time To Relax
On the middle Sunday of each Blue Lake session,
students have the opportunity to sleep in, relax, and
take advantage of a little morning free time. Blue
Lake offers a non-denominational chapel service
for those students wishing to attend. Morning
instruction on this day includes specific department
programs unique to the student’s chosen major,
often consisting of interactive master classes,
special topics, and casual faculty/staff recitals. Staff
members offer a variety of structured recreation
events prior to Sunday dinner and the scheduled
evening activity.
