Creativity thrives at Rockmont, where campers are encouraged to express themselves, explore new talents, and bring their ideas to life. Whether shaping clay in ceramics, crafting unique projects, strumming chords on the guitar, capturing moments through photography, launching rockets, or stepping into the spotlight in theater and improv, each activity sparks imagination and confidence. With guidance from experienced mentors, campers discover the joy of making, performing, and creating in a fun and supportive environment.
Creative Skills
Ceramics
In our ceramic studio, campers will have the chance to learn basic pottery practices. They will begin with hand-building techniques and eventually progress to throwing on the wheel. Throughout the process, campers will have a blast getting their hands dirty while rolling out clay and making coil pots. At the end of the session, they will have the opportunity to bring their masterpieces home for the world to see!
Crafts
Our crafts program offers campers the opportunity to explore their creative side and work on a variety of fun projects. Throughout the session, campers will work on projects like paracord bracelets, popsicle boats, canvas painting and more. At the end of the session, they will have the opportunity to bring their masterpieces home for the world to see.
Guitar
The guitar skill invites campers to learn the fundamentals of playing guitar. Throughout the session, campers will build a foundational understanding of chords and basic songs. With enough practice, they might be invited to play as a group in front of the whole camp! Our advanced players will have the opportunity to try new instruments like the mandolin and banjo. We have plenty of instruments, but campers are welcome to bring their own!
Photography
(11+ Years)
In this skill campers will work with digital and DSLR cameras to learn the fundamentals of photography; lighting, composition, proportions, contrast, rule of thirds, and much more. Throughout the session, they will have the chance to take photos of nature and day-to-day life at camp, and all the buzzing excitement that comes with it.
Rocketry
Throughout the session, campers will pay close attention to details while constructing their very own rockets. They will then have the pleasure of watching these rockets soar off into the sky at the end of the session!
Theater & Improv
Campers will participate in games and activities that develop acting and improvisational skills. These creative games will give campers the chance to explore what it means to be an actor in a fun, encouraging environment.
