Grandparents Camp

For ten years, older adults & their grandchildren have been gathering for a week of fun at Grandparents Camp at the Canonicus Camp & Conference Center in Exeter, RI.  Designed with both children and older adults in mind, Grandparents Camp brings generations together for a week of quality time, away from the distractions of everyday life.

Activities for Grandparents Camp include:

           Arts and Crafts

           Boating

           Nature Walks

           Campfire Songs

           Archery

           Kids Games & More

Offsite activities are also a part of Grandparents Camp. Included in the annual program is a day trip to Watch Hill with beach combing and bird watching at Napatree Point.

Learning to be contributing members of the community is one of the experiences of Grandparents Camp.  Each year campers work together on a special project designed to “give back” to the camp property.  Previous projects have included building picnic tables and landscaping gardens. 

Accommodations for Grandparents Camp are in the Canonicus Retreat Houses with meals served lakeside at the Shaub Dining Lodge.
