The objective of each Red Knight Camp is to involve girls in a variety of safe and fun summer activities. The all-girls setting creates a joyful and supportive environment where girls feel comfortable trying new activities, gaining new skills, and making great friends. All IWA summer camp activities are based on the components of wellness: physical, emotional, spiritual, environmental, intellectual and social. Campers will venture into art rooms, onto center court, and out to the sports fields. Camps are directed by experienced and caring IWA faculty/staff professionals.
