Culver Summer Schools & Camps
Residential Coed Camp
The summer of a lifetime
There's camp, and there's Culver. The difference? One summer camp mother of 13 consecutive years put it this way, "Our four sons agree that the best gift we have ever given them is Culver Summer Schools & Camps. Where else can young men and women make lifelong friends while learning that competition is fun and challenges are exciting all at an amazing campus with friends from around the world?"
Culver offers young people 9 to 17 the opportunity to enjoy the most remarkable summer of their lives. Culver's structure allows campers to develop self-confidence while learning the value of self-discipline. They learn to overcome self-imposed limitations; improve technical, academic, and athletic skills; and how to push for their personal best. All while learning to ride, ski, sail, scuba, and even fly.
For 110 years, Culver parents have marveled at how their sons and daughters return home with a greater ability to cooperate and interact with others, achieving not only their own goals, but family and group goals as well. And Culver campers have returned again and again to enjoy their summer of lifetime. Go to culver.org/summer to watch our video and learn more.
