Air Riflery

Located in the beautiful Huron National Forest, our air riflery range features 8 BB guns. Our air riflery program teaches beginners the basics of gun safety and target shooting. Our program provides a challenging yet fun experience for campers at any skill level.

Archery

Our archery program is led by trained staff that seeks to foster individual satisfaction in a non-competitive environment.  Campers learn and practice safety rules and can shoot on both recurve and compound bows. We encourage, challenge, and award campers with our point and distance achievement levels.

Arts and Crafts

Creativity is the number one goal in our craft cabin. Experienced staff guides campers in craft projects ranging from lacing to wood burning. We give campers access to hundreds of materials and afford them many opportunities to explore their imaginations and engage in the world of arts and crafts.

Bouldering Wall

Climb till you drop on our new bouldering wall. Unlike a vertical climbing wall our bouldering wall challenges climbers to travel across the wall horizontally, which is not only safer than traditional walls, it encourages teamwork, and challenges campers in new ways.

Canoeing

From first strokes to figure eights, all levels of experience are welcome in canoeing.  Campers travel to the gorgeous Au Sable River, where they learn safety rules, essential equipment parts, and strokes and techniques to use in canoeing.

Drama

Our Rec Hall houses dozens of dresses and other costumes that come to life in drama class.  Activity leaders work with campers' individual talents and desires all week long. At the end of the week, campers perform an original musical number or play for the entire camp.

Disc Golf

Let our 8 hole disc golf course take you up the hill, into the forest, past Wildcat Creek, and all around camp. We have short and long tee’s for every skill level, and scenery that you probably won’t find at any other course.

Fishing

We know all the spots, and have all the gear, all you have to do is catch some fish! Whether you travel to Cooke Dam for some Rainbow Trout, or you travel down river in search of Catfish, we can guarentee that you will love it!

Hiking

Huron Forest Camp CedarRidge has access to hundreds of miles of trails, and we use them. You can travel to the Beaver Dam, the Fary Forest, hike to the River, or just take a stroll down the camp road, there are endless options.

Horsemanship

Join us in a ring ride, trail ride, or take horsemanship as an activity class. Any way you will gain hands on experience with the horses, in a safe enviornment, with highly trained staff with years of experience.

Orienteering

We teach the basics of hiking, and navigating the woods, including reading maps, compass’s, pacing, trail signs and markers, sun & star navigation, and much more!

Outdoor Cooking

Nothing beats an afternoon snack attack like food over a fire! Under the supervision of a trained staff member, campers create a variety of cooking fires and cook meals and desserts in the great outdoors. In addition, campers learn practical camping skills and helpful hints for making the most delectable courses in the wild. Bon appétit!

Outdoor Living Skills

Shelter building, fire making, orienteering - campers can tackle any outdoor challenge by the end of this class! Surviving in the great outdoors has never been more fun. In hikes to places like the beaver dam and Fairy Forest, campers witness firsthand the beauty of God's creation.

Outdoor Sports

Soccer, football, volleyball, ultimate Frisbee, tetherball, the list goes on. Our rec field, and open locations around camp provide an awesome place to play sports.

Riflery

Built into the side of 'Heart-attack Hill', campers learn to shoot our new 22 caliber guns in a scenic, rustic range. We have fun targets such as metal pop down ducks and "take home" targets.

Swamp Stomping

For those campers that want to get a little bit messy our swamp provides the perfect chance.  Stomp, splash, swim, and jump. This unique, once in a lifetime opportunity is fun for all ages.

Swimming

Swim in our 65,000-gallon pool or the scenic Au Sable River. In the pool we have nets for water polo, a deep end for cannonballs, and a connected bathhouse. At both locations we have multiple certified lifeguards on duty all the time.

Tubing

If swimming in the river is not your thing, or maybe you are looking for something different, tubing in the Au Sable River is a blast! Relax amid the beauty of the Huron National Forest or race your buddies down the river.
