Hey, Camp People!
It brings us great joy here at Everything Summer Camp to work so closely with about 250 summer camps across the nation. That’s why we’re happy to tell you about what fantastic camps they are! So this week, we’re fixing our spotlight on the beautiful campgrounds
of Camp Cheerio, an hour out from Winston-Salem in North Carolina.
Sitting on 135 acres at great altitudes on the eastern side of the Blue Ridge Mountains, this YMCA camp offers a great place where campers can have a great time whether they’re relaxing or getting all riled up. A quiet, peaceful setting away from home allows Cheerio campers to be themselves as they have the summer of their lives.
Days at Camp Cheerio stay pretty busy when camp is in session. After all, campers have a lot of activities to choose from! There’s Aquatics, Challenge Sports, Field Games, Creative Arts, Nature Study in the daytime and crazy fun to be had in the evenings like Counselor Hunts, Carnival Night, Spy Hunter, Capture the Flag, and Skit/Talent Night.
Cheerio campers also take advantage of the awesome Blue Ridge Mountains and other jaw-dropping landscapes nearby to the campgrounds. Kids will get a chance to set off on daylong adventures like canoe trips, caving, climbing, and woodsy excursions.
Complete with accommodating cabins, a first-class Dining Hall, Health Center, Gym, Athletic Fields, Tennis Courts, Lake Kiwanis, Swimming Pool, Climbing Towers, Riding Stables, High Ropes Course, and Rifle Range, the Cheerio campground is a fully functional playground that’s not only fun, but also developmental for youth.
Set your sights on Camp Cheerio next summer! It’s a safe, supportive place for your kids to take their first few subtle steps toward self-discovery all while enjoying the summer of their lives. Does Camp Cheerio sound like it just may be the camp for your kid? Check it out right here and, as always, thanks for reading!
