PRE-K & KINDERGARTEN
Freshman Campus is built around our Freshman Clubhouse, an air-conditioned multipurpose facility. With floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking beautiful Jefferson Lake, Freshman Clubhouse is the perfect setting for day camp activities such as junior yoga and music as well as self-directed creative play! Developmentally appropriate sports fields surround the Clubhouse along with playground facilities set-aside specifically for our freshman campers!
We take special care to guarantee that our smallest campers feel safe and secure. We believe that little people can do bigger things! From our renowned swim program to our broad range of daily activities, our littlest Jeff Lakers learn how wonderful it is to say, “Yes!” to new experiences in a nurturing environment!
1ST AND 2ND GRADE
First and second graders move on to new experiences in Junior Camp. Juniors expand their experience and enthusiasm on the lake to include fishing, kayaking and canoeing. Our inflatable lake playground offers unparalleled fun! Creative Arts engages campers’ ever-growing interests with exposure to the pottery wheels, a variety of crafts, and dance and theater classes. Gymnastics remains a well-loved camp activity, with an emphasis that shifts to skill development. Our highly regarded day camp sports program hits a home run by focusing on campers’ developmental needs with increased skill building and coaching, as well as free play.
3RD TO 5TH GRADE
The Jeff Lake experience grows with your camper’s readiness for the challenge. Our four pillars of Spirit, Sportsmanship, Family and Tradition are woven through the curriculum whether you are on the lake, in our dance or arts pavilion or on the sports field.
Our Lake experience kicks into high adventure with our lake playground and water trampolines. Having mastered kayaking and canoeing, our 3rd-5th graders test their balance with our Lake Boarding program and begin instruction in small craft sailing. Instruction in rod and reel fishing leaves each Jeff Lake ready for any catch and release experience. At Jeff Lake, our campers are lake savvy!
