TRIPS

Wachusett's active program of overnight trips involves hiking and canoeing trips of a night or more and takes the boys into splendid sections of Vermont, New York, and New Hampshire.  Although the trips are optional, the camp encourages the boys to take advantage of some of the outstanding opportunities for camping in New England.  The Green Mountains of Vermont, the Adirondacks of New York, and the White Mountains of New Hampshire are simply gorgeous and offer terrific hiking and canoeing opportunities.

The overnight trips are geared to a boy's age and maturity.  Campers typically select a trip from several that are offered.  The camp's trips often contribute to the development of independence, cooperation, and appreciation that Wachusett always has considered significant.  They are intended to challenge but not to overwhelm.  The emphasis is upon simplicity -- with food prepared in the open and shelter provided by tents, lean-tos, and the stars.  The hope is that these early experiences will lead to a lifelong interest in the outdoors and in the environment.
