Field Trips

In the "Mathcamp standard week", we teach classes Tuesday through Saturday, so the Mathcamp "weekend" is Sunday and Monday. During the weekends throughout camp, the staff (and campers!) organize lots of different field trips. Sundays are for relaxation and small-group outings; major field trips are scheduled for Mondays, to avoid the crowds. All field trips are optional; some campers just stay on campus and relax.

A few examples of field trips we've run in the past:

a Mathcamp rafting trip
  • whitewater rafting
  • hiking
  • trips to various cities
  • Renaissance fairs
  • Fourth of July fireworks (when the holiday overlaps with camp)
  • amusement parks
  • stargazing
  • art museums
  • berry picking
  • and much more!
