While we are rustic, we do have electricity and all our bathhouses offer flush toilets and hot water showers.

CAMP PROGRAM INFO: Founded in 1927 by Nannie West, Camp Mont Shenandoah is one of the oldest girls’ camps in Virginia. The exceptional Mont Shenandoah experience has kept families returning for generations and inspired numerous campers to return as counselors. Camp Mont Shenandoah’s mission is to create an excellent summer camp experience for girls. In a safe and caring environment, our camp provides the setting and structure each girl needs to grow -- physically, mentally, socially, and spiritually.

Through cabin living, fun, challenging activities, relationships with peers and staff, and longstanding traditions, we promote life skills that instill confidence, develop a girl’s sense of self and foster independence. Campers leave Mont Shenandoah having learned the guiding principles of our five virtues: Love, Loyalty, Friendship, Sportsmanship, and Spiritual Awareness. Camp Mont Shenandoah boasts a high rate of returning program staff, almost all of whom are former campers or junior counselors. Counselors are selected based on their maturity, stability, dependability, leadership skills, ability to relate to girls of all ages, sense of humor as well as their knowledge and demonstrated skills in the activity for which they are hired to teach. The camper-to-staff ratio is five to one, assuring each girl ample individual attention

CAMP SCHOLARSHIPS OR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE: In 2005, Camp Mont Shenandoah started The Camp Spirit Scholarship to help campers attend camp that may not otherwise be able to due to financial constraints. The Camp Spirit Scholarship is a fund within Community Foundation for Rockbridge, Bath and Alleghany, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.

OTHER CAMP INFO: If horses are your passion, you’ll be able to enjoy a comprehensive horseback riding program designed for girls of all ages and skill levels at Cabell Stable, our equestrian facility built in 2001. Our goals at Cabell Stable at Camp Mont Shenandoah are to improve riding skills, teach proper horse care and barn maintenance, learn to appreciate and value horses, and lastly (but certainly not least!) to have fun. From the moment they set foot in Cabell Stable, campers are taught to respect each horse and how to properly handle them on the ground and in the saddle. Our lessons are based on hunt seat equitation that focuses on the rider’s form. We limit our horseback riding classes to no more than five girls in the ring at a time, ensuring adequate instruction for each camper. Safety is of primary importance at Cabell Stable. When mounted, all girls must wear an approved (ATSM-SEI) protective helmet, long pants (or breeches) and boots with a heel. (We have helmets for campers to borrow if they do not have their own).

Our young artists will start by building their very own loom and planning out dynamic compositions before starting the weaving process. Our young artists will then learn the intricacies of this ancient art process and discover ways to incorporate their unique style into their artwork by using traditional and nontraditional weaving materials.

Painting Imaginative Landscapes with Taleah!
In this course, our young artists will create their own imaginative landscapes by designing compositions from reference images that they will then learn how to paint onto canvases using acrylic paint. Our young artists will learn how to create dynamic compositions that incorporate proportion, perspective, and color theory to bring their landscapes to life. In the development of their unique landscapes, our young artists will learn how to tell a story with their artwork that brings out their artistic voice.

Mixed Media Artistic Journaling with Alessandra!

By experimenting with 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional supplies such as oil pastel, watercolors, mixed papers, and natural & found materials, our young artists will discover their own artistic voice and develop their visual storytelling skills through free-form expression. Our young artists will begin their journaling process by reflecting on daily prompts to inspire their creativity and explore materials and techniques to answer that prompt.

Students will learn how to utilize colored light and work with bright, simple objects to create stunning artworks. Through the exploration of intense light and its effects on the local color of still life objects, students will develop a deep understanding of how different light
arrangements can fundamentally change the color relationships of objects in their artwork. With a focus on value versus color saturation, students will complete one canvas per day, allowing for a dialogue centered on artistic expression and technique. using painting knives and brushes, students will practice paint handling in preparation for longer studies.

Classical Drawing Level I with Michela!
In this progressively oriented beginner drawing course, our objective is to develop drawing and seeing skills in serious young artists.New students will learn the three important parts of starting a drawing:

1). the envelope
2). the separation of light from shadow, and
3). the five-value scale.

Through the use of simple still life objects, students will practice perspective and proportion under a single light source. With charcoal on toned paper, participants will learn how to see and successfully articulate monumental shapes of light and shadow, create the illusion of depth, and fully realize tonal relationships.

Classical Drawing Level II with Michela!
This course is designed to develop drawing and observational skills in serious young artists. Through the use of complex still life objects such as casts from antiquity, students will practice perspective and proportion under a single light source. Using charcoal on toned paper, participants will learn how to see and successfully articulate monumental shapes of light and shadow, creating the illusion of depth and fully realizing tonal relationships. Throughout the week, we will also introduce the Charles Bargue Drawing Course to further enhance students' mastery of skills. These skills include:

1). successfully launching an envelope around the
compositional elements,
2). determining correct tilts and angles, describing
perspective,
3). consistently separating true light from true shadow, and
4). calibrating the value of the overall still life arrangement.

Paper Mache with Michela!
This camp is all about exploring the world of three-dimensional artwork through the medium of papier-mâché. Known as the "poor man's clay," papier-mâché allows students to create sculptures and bring their imagination to life. One of the key skills learned in this camp is engineering, as students are required to construct an armature that can support the weight of their sculpture. To do this, they study the skeletal structure of animals or other subjects they wish to recreate, enabling them to engineer a strong armature as a foundation for their sculpture. The materials used to form the sculpture are simple, including wire, balloons, recycling newspaper, boxes, white printing paper, a soluble solution of methyl cellulose, Elmer's glue and hot glue. After preparing the sculpture with a white primer, students are invited to paint it using water-based tempera paints. This camp offers a skill-based learning process where students have a lot of fun creating their own unique sculptures.

Anime Drawing with Michela!
Welcome to our Japanese Style Figure Drawing Summer Camp! This camp offers students the unique opportunity to study the art of Japanese-style figure drawing and explore the creation of narratives through their artwork. Japanese-style drawing is renowned for its realistic interpretation, especially in graphic novels. Throughout the week, students will focus on different aspects of drawing skills, dedicating each day to a specific area of study. They will spend time
mastering the intricacies of drawing heads and hairstyles, bodies and body types, hands and feet, as well as perspective and backgrounds. On the final day, students will have the freedom to choose their own adventure by creating and illustrating their own short story.

Our goal is to glorify God by pointing others to Him, whether that’s through our summer camp program, or through the retreats that we plan or host. Camp Piankatank is a Christian summer camp and retreat center owned by the Baptist General Association of Virginia, and located on the beautiful Piankatank River.

During the summer, Camp Piankatank becomes what it was meant to be from the beginning, a summer camp. For many years, Camp Piankatank was operated as just a summer camp. This is our passion, this is why Camp Piankatank exists, and this is why so many people love this place – they have experienced the live-changing power of Christ at Camp Piankatank, and can point to the very place at camp that they first accepted him as their Lord and Savior.

Meet the Directors

Steve and Niki Gourley have been Directors at Camp Piankatank since 2006. They both have a long history at the camp, and have a passion for camp ministry. They understand the impact that camp can and does have on a child’s life, and that’s why they continue to serve here.

CIT's will learn responsibility, professionalism, how to lead a group, how to lead a Bible study, and more. For more information, please contact our camp office.

CAMP SCHOLARSHIPS OR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE: We do offer financial assistance for families in need. Those interested can contact the camp for a scholarship application.

YEAR-ROUND PROGRAMS: “Theater by kids, for kids!” Encore Stage & Studio has been serving children and their families in Arlington for 47 years. Their mission is to build life-long appreciation for live theater by involving young people in all aspects of theater arts — onstage, backstage, in the classroom, and in the audience. Encore achieves this through two primary avenues: high quality, developmentally appropriate theatrical productions that are by and for young people, and enriching, curriculum-enhancing educational classes, workshops and summer programs. Encore Stage will perform and offer an activity featuring theatre and improv games for children and families, run by their performers (ages 9–18) and supervised by their Director.

Today, Encore has grown to include our production season and school year education classes and summer programs. Encore presents five fully realized productions each year under the guidance and direction of experienced theater professionals. Encore is unique in offering dramatic productions in which every actor and every behind–the-scenes technician is a young person under 18 years of age. Our summer production program, casts youth ages 15 and older, as well as college students and adult community members. Encore’s multi-age structure encourages mentoring and role modeling between older and younger participants. Our production opportunities are provided to participants at no cost.

In conjunction with, and as a foundation for, our on-stage productions, Encore offers a year-round series of theater classes, workshops, and summer camps. Stage Door, Scenes for Tweens, and It’s Elementary. Literacy and playwriting have become an important focus within our educational programming through Encore’s “Play-Ground” for middle school students.

In addition, we have recently started a number of creative programs designed to expand our reach in the community and our offerings for our students. These include the Musical Theatre Intensive, for singers in the 8th grade and older; the Encore Traveling Theatre Club, through which Encore participants attend plays at other theaters in the area, including Arena Stage, The Roundhouse Theatre, and Signature Theatre; and Evenings with the Pros, in which Encore participants take acting workshops from local professional actors.
