Lights
6th–8th grade
The Lights age group at Amplify offers a dynamic and enriching experience for our second youngest campers. Designed specifically for youth navigating early adolescence, this program allows campers to explore their creativity, build confidence, and form lasting friendships. With the ability to choose their own electives, Lights are encouraged to pursue their individual passions, whether it’s music, art, technology, or outdoor activities. Our staff are particularly attentive to the social and emotional changes these campers experience, offering support and guidance as they develop their sense of self. From fun group activities to special events, the Lights program provides a safe, engaging environment where campers can grow, connect, and thrive.
Campers grow and evolve every year… Their camp experience should, too! Every aspect of camp is fine-tuned to best nurture and support youth where they’re at (and where they’re going). That’s why older campers get additional privileges, challenges, and opportunities to be incredible role models to younger campers.
