Summer camp for 7th-8th & 9th graders 13-14-15 year olds near Roxbury
At Tamarack Day Camp, the Teen Travel Program gives 13 to 15-year-olds a camp experience that feels more age-appropriate, active, and independent. Designed for 7th, 8th, and 9th graders near Roxbury, NJ, this program combines regular camp days with off-site day trips, giving teens a balanced schedule throughout the summer. On camp days, teens stay with their group and counselors as they move through activities such as free swim, ropes courses, athletics, creative options, and group challenges. The structure helps keep each day organized, while the variety gives older campers more room to stay engaged, build confidence, and enjoy time with friends.
Safety remains a key part of the Teen Travel Program at Tamarack Day Camp, especially when campers are away from camp on trips. For 13 to 15-year-olds near Roxbury, NJ, each travel day follows clear Tamarack Travel Protocols so teens understand expectations before they leave camp. Parents and participants are also required to sign the Teen Travel Behavior Contract, which helps set clear rules for conduct, responsibility, and respect in public spaces. The program is supervised by a Division Head who oversees both on-site camp days and off-site travel days. Teen staff members are trained to guide older campers, manage group movement, support positive behavior, and respond to the needs of early adolescents during a more independent camp experience.
