About The Lindgren School & Camp
Drive down the Lindgren drive and you know you’ve entered into a very special place. Set in our woodland oasis, Lindgren camp is a haven, unlike any summer camp in the local area. The beautiful outdoor grounds and pavilions create a true outdoor camp experience,“a bit of country right here in Closter.” Lindgren teachers, local elementary teachers and artisans bring their talents to each department offered at the camp.
Children have the freedom to choose how to spend their time in an atmosphere free of pressure. Campers can choose painting or playing games, making mud pies or real pies, learning about birds or learning to swim.
From an extensive arts and crafts program, to sports and swim lessons, the farm animals and gardens, and the adjacent Closter Nature Center, it’s a country atmosphere that engages and inspires campers—and lets children be children.
Programs
The classes, camps and experiences this business offers.
Main Camp: Ages 4 to 9
Each camper is assigned to a troop led by a Head Counselor and a CIT (counselor-in-training). The counselors monitor their campers throughout the day. The troop comes together for morning roll call, a morning swim lesson, and lunch. (Plus 2:30PM ice pops for the full-day kids).
Hill Camp: Age 3
3-year-olds have a separate, one-acre camp. The counselors are veteran teachers of young ones, specializing in TLC and toilet training. The Hill Camp has a sand area, water spray-park, climbers and swings, and a table pavilion for arts & crafts. This camp is designed for our youngest campers to enjoy a real outdoor camp experience.
Expeditioner Camp: Ages 10 & 11
Returning campers who will be entering 5th and 6th grades are offered this exciting and challenging camp experience of field trips and local hiking. The focus of the expeditions is to introduce young people to local outdoor physical activities, as well as to the natural beauty of this area and the importance of preserving our woodlands and watersheds.
