While at the camp, participants make crafts, participate in various sports, help care for the camp's resident animals, have cookouts and hayrides, and help assemble toys for local underprivileged children. The camp provides all food as well as materials for all craft classes and the toys to be assembled. One cabin can accommodate up to 10 children, and one camp counselor is assigned to each cabin.
