Come have a blast while learning how to keep others safe and happy in an adventure education setting. In this course, participants will gain adventure, facilitation and safety skills—all through hands on experience. A large portion of the week is spent working on Lifeguarding, First Aid and CPR. Participants who are 15 and older can receive Red Cross certifications in these areas. Throughout the week all participants will also receive our Morse Hill certifications in belaying, canoe safety and low ropes facilitation. Those who complete this course successfully have the opportunity to be a Counselor-in-Training for two weeks at Morse Hill. Come join us for an action-packed, fun and rewarding week!

NEW PAYMENT POLICIES
We are trying to make Morse Hill accessible to more families, so we are using a sliding scale this summer. In order to provide the best experience possible for campers and offer a fair wage to our staff, our sliding payment scale should more fairly distribute the cost of summer camp. We appreciate your understanding as we work to provide a more equitable model for our families and community.
We have included many coupons to help you save money, such as paying early, paying with a personal check, multi camp discounts and sibling discounts. We of course offer scholarships to families on a need basis. To apply, please reach us at summer@morsehill.com and our office staff will assist you in the application process.
Lastly, we have brought back the “deposit”, so you do not have to pay so much up front.
