Winter Sports at Camp Starlight

Thursday, July 6th, 2017

Camp Starlight embodies all the classic ideas and activities associated with a summer camp–water sports, arts and crafts, campfires and basically every sport meant to be played under the sun. Creating the ultimate summer experience, Camp Starlight can’t help but go the extra mile in camper happiness and fun which is why they have pushed the limits of what activities are meant to be played under the heat of the sun with their own ice rink, “The StarRink.” Traditionally, hockey and figure skating, sports that caters to the atmosphere of snow and ice, are offered as a full time activity due to the synthetic ice rink, allowing campers to enjoy this winter time sport outside in the sunshine. Camp Starlight brings the magic by transforming winter into summer.

It’s an awesome opportunity to teach a skill that kids really wouldn’t practice in the summer. Available as a choice for option periods, campers are able to access the rink as many times as they wish. Campers at Camp Starlight are able to take advantage of improving athletic skills that are primarily only worked on in the winter season, allowing campers to obtain a well rounded set of technical skills.

Camp Starlight’s initiative to provide the campers with the opportunity to participate in winter sports during the summer season highlights their dedication to support all camper’s athletic skills and capabilities, encouraging campers to always go outside the box, or in this case, inside the rink.
