Leadership Camps
Leadership camps for middle schoolers! Athena’s Path (for girls) & Hero’s Pursuit (for boys) are week-long day camps that give kids in 5th – 8th grade an opportunity to develop their unique leadership style while having fun and meeting new friends.
We launched Athena’s Path & Hero’s Pursuit Summer Camps in 2004. Camps kept growing and campers keep coming back because they love the friendships they make, the games they play, and the lessons they learn. In 2020, we launched Zoom options and were joined by kids around the country and the world. No matter how they participate, your son or daughter will bond with kids like them, explore new interests and skills, and learn from talented, experienced teachers and high school mentors. Most of all, they’ll have fun. It’s summer, after all!
In Athena’s Path and Hero’s Pursuit, your child will learn important leadership skills and play lots of fun games. These are some of the lessons taught:
- Redefining Leadership
- Responding to Criticism
- Taking Compliments
- Creative Problem-Solving
- Exiting Toxic Friendships
- Media Influence
- Handling Emotional Flare-Ups
- Positive Communication
- Stepping Out of Drama
- Managing Group Dynamics
“The camp and lessons will forever remain within me. I constantly tell people that I am who I am because of my experiences during camp.”
