Summer fun for staff at Wico!
Join your friends in the staff lounge and chill out at night. There are always plenty of snacks and drinks available as well as TV/Movies and games. Or maybe you would rather join the nightly ping-pong matches, check your email, instant message with a friend from home, or just hang out. The staff lounge is your space on camp to relax, talk, and enjoy the company of some amazing people. Whatever it is you like to do on your free time: reading, watching TV, playing your guitar, the staff lounge is the place to be. STAFF INTRAMURALS It's go time! If you like to compete, play sports or even get a good laugh while spectating, Wico staff intramurals are a great event. Join our 3-on-3 basketball intramurals, play beach volleyball, or grab your cleats and head to the soccer field for some fun competition. If you have a sport you want to get going for the staff, we can do that too. Staff intramurals are a great way to get some exercise, talk trash, and have a blast with your new friends! You also have the option to get out on camp and play a game of basketball, volleyball or tennis on our lighted courts. The heated swimming pool is also open nightly for free swim. You may even find some Yoga classes going on to participate in. DAYS OFF You don't have to work all the time! We know how hard you work and we want you to have some time off to explore New England and feel refreshed when you return to camp. We feel that if our staff is happy and having a good time, our campers will also be sharing a positive, fun experience. You will have 6 days off during the summer. Here are some examples of what our staff has done in the past... Boston Theatre, food, wine, nightclubs, museums, music and a whole lot of fun make Boston a great getaway during a summer at Wico! Just across the river from Boston is Cambridge, often called "Boston's Left Bank." Packed with international flair and a youthful vitality, Cambridge is a city where counter-culture still lives, classic culture thrives, and multicultural is a way of life." It is also home of two of the most famous Universities in the world, Harvard and Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). NH Seacoast Take a beautiful ride to the NH Seacoast where you can bask in the summer sun or maybe grab a surfboard and ride the waves! Be sure to grab some tasty lobster or local fish while you are on the coast. White Mountain National Forest There are endless hiking opportunities in the White Mountains of NH. There are hundreds of thousands of miles of hiking trails in the Whites. Perhaps the most famous is the Appalachian Trail (AT), which is the designation for a string of trails that are part of this 2200 mile footpath connecting Georgia to Maine. Explore some of the AT or climb beautiful Franconia Notch and traverse over 5 peaks while gazing at Mt. Washington off in the distance! If the White Mountains aren't enough, you can visit the Green Mountains of Vermont just across the border. Burlington, Vermont This hip, relaxed, and youthful University town offers the beaches of Lake Champlain and some of the best nightlife around! You can stroll the downtown on foot to the Church Street Marketplace, take a ferry ride across Lake Champlain, or catch some live music from some of the famous local bands. Don't forget to grab some famous and delicious ice cream on the way out or even visit the free sampling factory from Ben & Jerry's! Local Attractions Plymouth and Hanover, NH are just two of many great small towns located within short driving distance of Camp Wicosuta. Visit famous Ivy League school, Dartmouth College, while renting a canoe to float down the Connecticut River or pop into Plymouth for some pizza at the local hangout and favorite, "P-Hop." |
