Activities
Camp Nashoba® Day provides quality instruction in a wide array of activities. Nashoba’s program is flexible and highly organized. The entire staff strives to make your summer fun, safe and rewarding while promoting friendship, teamwork, cultural awareness and appreciation of nature.

Watersports

The waterfront at Nashoba is an active place where children learn and practice many skills on Fort Pond. One mile long and one quarter mile wide, Fort Pond offers an ideal setting for swimming and all watersports: sailing, waterskiing, wakeboarding, paddle boarding, rowing, canoeing, kayaking and fishing. Red Cross swimming instruction is offered once a day for levels 1-6 and lifeguard training for those who pass level 6 and free swim is offered every afternoon in the lake and in the pool. Campers are required to pass a “Boaters” test prior to participating in the boating program at Nashoba. This consists of performing a front dive and a surface dive, treading water for two minutes, survival float for one minute and swimming a quarter mile across the cove accompanied by a staff member rowing a boat. All campers and staff are required to wear an approved PFD while boating on the water at Nashoba. Nashoba’s entire waterfront staff are certified ARC lifeguards and all of the counselors are CPR and First Aid certified. Many of the swim staff are ARC Water Safety Instructors and Lifeguard Instructors.

Outdoor Sports

Team and individual sports are offered to all ages and abilities at Nashoba. Tennis, softball, soccer, basketball, dodge ball, kick ball, volleyball, archery and tetherball. Talented and mature staff offer instruction throughout the summer at each of these activities; archery instructors have been certified through the National Archery Association. At Nashoba Day we are committed to teaching campers the values of conservation and preservation of our pristine surroundings, wildlife and natural resources.

“Michael had another tremendous year at Camp Nashoba. I can’t say enough about what the camp has done for his confidence and his willingness to explore new interests. The counselors are fantastic! Michael always arrives home with a big smile on his face and plenty of fine stories about his day of adventures. Well done Camp Nashoba!!!”
