What’s happening during Session A and Session B?
While there are some similarities and the Caz Magic can be felt through both weeks, each week has something special and unique to offer. Whatever week you choose to join us, you’ll get to experience the creativity, community, and collaboration that can only be felt at Caz.
A Look at Our Regular Program
EVERY DAY
Wake Up Band: Drop in and join us for this Caz Family Camp tradition of gently waking campers to music. Bring your instrument of choice and we will meet at Kid City to warm up at 7:30 am.
Mindfulness Time: This is a time to reconnect and check in with our families, ground ourselves in nature or simply take a nap. This is the quietest time of our day at Caz. It’s a self-led time of calmness and re-focusing, but if you need assistance in leaning into this time for yourself or your family, you can participate in a few guided activities facilitated by Teaching Artists and Community Ambassadors that will be holding space for you during this peaceful time.
Free Time: A time to hang out with friends, go for a swim in our pool, indulge in the snack bar and/or catch our daily Open Mic.
Open Mic: Daily during Free Time, with tunes spun our Caz DJ, Open Mic is a great chance to perform whatever creative work is from your heart and soul in front of a supportive audience. Come and enjoy your fellow campers’ lovely creative efforts! Monday is a special Covers & Karaoke Only Open Mic: cover your favorite song, tell your favorite story, or recite your favorite poem or joke, etc. There will be no open mic Friday as this time will be reserved for a 2 hour showcase of several class performances.
Acoustic Jam, Electric Jam, Board Games/Lounge Hour: Following evening activities. Board games will be available in the dining hall and a space to a hang out and lounge around after 10pm will be available in the dance hall for ages 13+ only.
