Teenagers are ready for greater independence, deeper connection, and meaningful responsibility — and the Varsity Program at Trail’s End is designed specifically for campers in 9th through 11th grade.
Varsity builds on the traditions that make TEC special while introducing an expanded, leadership-focused experience. Campers enjoy increased choice within their daily schedule, along with extended trips, community service projects, and camp-wide leadership opportunities that allow them to take on a more active role within the community.
Often referred to as the “best years of camp,” Varsity is a time when friendships deepen, confidence grows, and campers begin to see themselves as leaders and role models. The program challenges teens to step up, support one another, and contribute meaningfully — while still enjoying the fun, energy, and spirit that define a Trail’s End summer.
- Trips: Extended off-campus and on-campus experiences that encourage independence, teamwork, and shared adventure
- Leadership: Camp-wide leadership roles that allow Varsity campers to model responsibility, positivity, and engagement
- Service: Community service projects that connect Varsity campers to the values of giving back and helping others
Varsity provides teenagers with a powerful, age-appropriate experience that prepares them for what’s next, while keeping them firmly connected to the place and people they call home each summer.
