Mariners Hill Camp
Rising 1st & 2nd Graders
Where our youngest campers learn through play
Mariners Hill Camp has its own hill, schedule and counselors. Campers move between hands-on learning stations, imaginative play, a daily American Red Cross swim lesson and time outdoors, in small tent groups with caring counselors.
I love how much the kids PLAY at BDC!
