How Co-ed is Camp Walden and how is the instruction?
Camp Walden is a co-ed camp with a strong emphasis on instruction and participation. Most activities, such as athletics and arts and crafts are not co-ed, but instead are grouped by gender and age so that the instruction is more appropriate. However, most evening activities and special events such as carnival, theatrical presentations, color war and trips out of camp are co-ed, which creates a real world social experience for our campers. Our programming and scheduling is designed to take the best benefits of single-sex camp and co-ed camp and meld them together in an appropriate way. Our program for both girls and boys is instructionally very strong with an emphasis on participation while providing an opportunity for healthy competition.
