Major and Minors Allow Campers to Focus on Principal Activities While Trying New Ones

Each day at Camp Pillsbury is comprised of six one hour periods; three Majors and three Minors. Majors are taken at the same time each day with the same staff and campers. These are activities that each camper has chosen to learn more about, get better at and be in the end of session show or exhibition. At the start of each session, campers get to choose their 3 majors and each day choose their minors for that day from the ones available. This allows campers to thrive at what they enjoy and have plenty of opportunity to try new elective summer camp activities they have never been exposed to before.
