Teen Programs

New Options Just for Teens

Teen programs provide an opportunity for young men to focus on areas of interest and learn new skills.

This year we’re offering our 4-week Counselor in Training program for campers that are currently in or have completed 10th grade.

We’re also excited to offer two new camps just for Teens: Magic, D + D, and Beyond, Sailing Camp, and Fishing Camp — for rising 8th, 9th, 10th, and 11th graders!

2027 dates/registration/rates coming soon!


2026 Counselors In Training Program

The CIT program is a 4-week youth leadership program for campers that are currently in or have completed 10th grade. The program is designed to help campers in the transition to counselor, and to develop leadership skills which can be used in school or in the workforce. The CIT experience provides in-depth training in skill development, child development, group dynamics, conflict resolution and more.

Each CIT lives in a cabin with up to 10 other CITs, who are supervised and mentored by the CIT Director. CIT’s typically interact with a large range of campers and staff during their stay. There are plenty of opportunities for CITs to enjoy camp programs and special events!

The Magic, D + D, and Beyond groups will have extended sessions of gameplay with weeklong campaigns, and a good amount of time connecting on strategy. This group will work together and compete with the card game Magic the Gathering and the interactive Dungeons and Dragons roleplaying game. Additional new games will be introduced and taught by passionate and dedicated staff.

Sailing Camp

  • Sailing Camp Session 2: July 5 – 16.

Camp will be hands-on — campers will learn all the parts and systems of Aqua-Finns, Hobie Cats, and small day sailers. During week two they will progress to larger day sailboats and extended trips on the lake.

Fishing Camp 

  • Fishing Camp Session 3: July 18 – 30
  • Fishing Camp Session 4: August 1 – 13

Spend two weeks at Camp Abnaki immersed in the world of fishing! Campers will learn and sharpen their skills in casting, knots, bait and tackle, fish ID and biology, and fishing techniques. We’ll fish from shore and small watercraft as we explore the Gut for the best places to catch Largemouth and Smallmouth Bass, Pickerel, Bluegills, Rock Bass, and Yellow Perch. Campers will learn hands-on skills of safely cleaning and cooking their catch. While this session is geared towards beginner and novice fishermen, anglers of all skill levels are welcome and will have a great time!
