Fall Family Fun and More at Camp Newaygo

By Scott Lakin, Camp Newaygo August 25, 2020

As your children head back to school, whether it’s virtual or in-person, old weekend standbys like sporting events and extracurricular activities have become more limited. Now, more than ever, getting away for the weekend as a family will be a necessary recharge. 

Camp Newaygo has a perfect solution that’s not too far from home! At their Fall Family Weekends, you can book the style of accommodations that work best for your family, enjoy meals from their executive chef, and choose from a variety of activity excursions to create your perfect weekend away. Camp Newaygo safely ran 7 weeks of overnight summer camp amidst COVID-19 and is qualified to continue program delivery by running COVID Careful Programs. 





If you’re concerned about your child’s continued social-emotional development while participating in virtual learning, Camp Newaygo also has two great school week options for you! At the Outdoor Learning Center, students complete virtual learning in the morning and embark on daily outdoor adventures in the afternoon. Open to 2nd-7th grade students, the entire day is supervised on-site by camp staff and has both full week and Friday only options for the fall semester.

If you have a high school student who will be craving time with her peers and loves the outdoors, she can enroll in a Semester at Camp. Students move to camp for the semester to complete remote school work during the day and enjoy all the enrichment programs camp has to offer in the evenings and on the weekends like canoeing, zip-lining, and cross-country skiing when the snow starts to fall. 







Camp Newaygo is all about providing positive experiences for youth and families, even during a global pandemic.
