Oak Hall
Summer Program
Summer is almost here...
Mission & Goals
The Oak Hall Summer Program seeks to provide opportunities for
campers to experience a wide range of new physical and creative
activities. Campers will have the opportunity to be teamed with other
campers of their own age who have similar interests and abilities so
that everyone has the chance to make many new friends and create
happy memories. At the Oak Hall Summer Program, each camper
will be offered a wholesome and positive experience designed
to improve skills and confidence. In an effort to accomplish this
mission, we strive to achieve the following goals:
• To provide campers with a positive, fun, wholesome,
and safe experience.
• To provide an environment that encourages and fosters
independence, self-confidence, and respect.
• To provide for the health and safety of every camper.
Each camp and activity will expand on these three essential goals to
provide a unique experience that each child is sure to remember.
Leadership
The Oak Hall Summer Program is supervised by Jeff Malloy.
Mr. Malloy is the school’s Athletic Director and Dean and brings
more than 20 years of summer camping experience to Oak Hallas a camper, leader-trainee, counselor, and director.
