Activities at NaCoMe

Whether your group has been coming to NaCoMe for years or it's your first time, we can help you put a schedule of activities together that will keep your group engaged and excited. Activities at NaCoMe range from the camp classics (like archery or canoeing or swimming) to the extreme (ziplines, rock walls, Giant Swings, anyone?).


Basic Activities

Included in all NaCoMe retreats:

  • The Creek: search for crawdads in our cool creek or simply sit back and relax.

  • Horseshoes: Our side-by-side horseshoe pits foster community and friendly competition.

  • Get athletic: Our basketball, volleyball, pickleball and 4-square courts are a great way to get your heart pumping!

  • Gaga: Feel the thrill of this unique version of dodgeball in our custom octagonal pit.

  • 9 Square In The Air: Traditional 4-Square, expanded to 9 squares, then turned upside down. Fast paced and addictive!

  • Hiking: We've got over 600 acres that can satisfy your appetite for exploration.

  • Disc Golf: Our 9-hole course spans our beautiful main camp area. Bring your own discs or borrow ours!

  • Rec Field: Up for a game of flag football? Our field is big enough to accommodate any group.

  • Lawn Games: Cornhole/Bean Bag Toss, Ladder Golf, and more are available for anyone at camp.

NaCoMe-Led Group Programming

Want to up the adventure level? In addition to the free activities above, NaCoMe also offers a variety of more adventurous programming options. We do our best to work with groups to maximize the opportunities while minimizing cost. During the planning stages of your retreat, you'll have the opportunity to choose any of the following activities. Consult the pricing guide here, and give us a call to talk about the options for your group. Once you have your retreat booked, you’ll work with our Retreat Director to schedule all of your activities!


The Swimming Hole

All Ages

Situated at the far end of main camp, we’ve dammed the creek to form a natural body of water for swimming and playing. Lifeguards are mandatory and are provided by NaCoMe.

Giant Swing

Junior high and older
10-25 people

Towering at over 40 feet, our giant swing offers a rush of adrenaline. Have your group pull you up to the top or just as high (or low) as you’d like, pull the cord and feel the wind on your face as you swing down and back to the tops of the trees.


The Leap of Faith

Junior High and Older
10-25 People

Get your heart pumping and palms sweating as you climb more than 30 feet on a single pole, then stand on top with nothing to hold on to. If that wasn't enough, the next task is to leap out to ring the bell, relying on the rope and your harness to catch you. In addition to our trained staff, you're guaranteed to need faith in your group- they're the ones holding the rope!

Vertical PLaypen

Junior high and older
10-30 people

Are you looking for a climbing experience unlike any other? If so, the Vertical Playpen is perfect for your group! There are 3 sections that make up the playpen - each one getting progressively more challenging!


Zipline

Junior high and older
10-30 people

Feel the wind rush by as you fly down our zipline. Towering nearly 50 feet off the ground, our zipline isn’t for the faint of heart and has been the highlight of countless retreats. Start on the ground and zip onto the top of the tower. Then complete the experience by zipping down the second line through the trees and back to the ground.
