About

Valley Mill Camp has been serving families in the Washington D.C. area since 1956, combining closeness to home with the atmosphere of an away camp. Located on more than sixty acres of deep woods and surrounding a two-acre spring fed lake, Valley Mill provides ample space for a vigorous camp program for both boys and girls. The counselors are selected for character and values that make them good role models. They care about the children and the camp, and they lead in the activities with a spirit of fun. Children are placed into an age group under the direction of a group counselor, and move through their activities with their groups for the entire summer. Activities include rock climbing, kayaking, and group trips off property. Activities of younger age groups are paced to their capacities, while older age groups have ample opportunity to excel. Valley Mill emphasizes the development of group cohesiveness and of resilience through outdoor challenge.
