Seton Day Camp Activities
Swimming. Your child will participate in recreational swim sessions in our Olympic pool under the supervision of certified lifeguards. Every child takes a swim test which determines his ability in the water.

Fishing. Campers test their angling skills in Seton’s lakes and streams which are stocked with trout, sunfish, and the elusive small mouthed bass. Campers may bring their own fishing gear or use poles and equipment supplied by the camp.

Field Sports and Games. Seton Day Camp offers basketball, volleyball, kickball, and other activities. Campers also relax with one of our board games on the shaded porch of the Pray Building.

Boating and Canoeing. Hillegas Lake provides an ideal setting for instruction and usage of row boats, canoes, and paddle boats under the watchful eye of certified instructors and lifeguards. All boaters wear Coast Guard certified Personal Flotation Devices (PFD).
Archery. At the archery range, boys get to perfect their bow and arrow skills. This takes place under the guidance of a Connecticut certified instructor who ensures safety and proper techniques.

Nature, Scoutcraft, and Hikes. Nature classes, Scoutcraft, and hikes are held on the 249 acres of lakes, streams, and fields in this beautiful, living outdoor wilderness where years of Scouting expertise can be shared with our campers.

Rock Climbing. (boys out of grade 5 and up to age 17). Campers use their agility and strength to scale the heights of local formations.
