Senior Campers

CREW

Two-Week Program: Ages 14-17
2023 Sessions:
Session 1 Weeks 3-4: Sunday, July 9-Saturday, July 22
Session 2 Weeks 7-8: Sunday, August 6-Saturday, August 19
Cost: $2070 for 2 weeks

We’re excited for our growing CREW program which is  specifically designed for teen aged campers. Our goal is to provide tangible life skills that campers can use at home, at school and in the community. This select group of leaders will participate in some camp activities, and will have their own schedule that includes uniquely designed projects, trips, activities, and hands on learning, including:
  • Learning by doing; leadership focus will include self awareness, social awareness, peer relationship building, and positive goal setting.
  • Event planning and hands-on practice organizing and leading large group activities in camp.
  • ​Assisting Activity Counselors in leading electives for younger campers. CREW campers will have the opportunity to assist in activities of their choice.
  • Trips! With the group's input, we'll explore Shelter Island with trips to places such as Mashomack Preserve, Sylvester Manor, Shelter Island Historical Society and Whales Tale Mini Golf. 
To Apply:
We have limited space for this program. CREW participants will be selected based on a handwritten letter answering these 3 questions:
  1. Give an example of a time you made a meaningful contribution to a group. Be specific; what happened and what did you do to make a difference?
  2. How do you see using your strengths to be a role model at camp?
  3. What would you hope would be your takeaway from CREW?​
Mail your handwritten letter to: 
CREW
Quinipet Camp & Retreat Center
PO Box 549 
Shelter Island Heights, NY 11965

To indicate interest; register for Summer 2023 CREW through our online registration beginning January 1, 2023. Once we've received your letter of interest, campers will be notified of selection and can complete the online registration.
