The LaVida Adventure Camp at Gordon College is for youth ages 11-15. Activities include mountain biking, canoeing, kayaking, indoor and outdoor rock climbing and ropes course. This summer a new CIT (Counselor in Training) leadership program is available for 15-18 year old high school students.

For over 36 years Gordon's LaVida program has provided adventure-based outdoor education. The goal of La Vida Adventure Camp is to build character, positive self-identity and a commitment to serve and care for others using small-group experiential learning. Campers are encouraged to practice effective communication skills and learn responsibility, helping each other develop confidence by stepping out of their daily comfort zone.

The adventure day-camp takes place on the Gordon College campus - several hundred acres on the North Shore filled with ponds, trails and rolling hills, including a 30-element ropes course. The cost for attending a one-week day camp is $330 and the two-week camp price is a discounted $495.

New this summer, La Vida is proud to announce the CIT adventure program - a fun and exciting leadership development opportunity for 15-18 year old high school students. Activities include two days of team training at the LaVida day camp at Gordon, followed by an adventurous 9-day canoe expedition in the Adirondack Mountains of New York. The cost of the 11 day CIT adventure is $575. This fee includes transportation to and from New York, meals on the trip portion of the program and group equipment.
