A week at Camp Cloverleaf begins with arrival on Monday morning and ends with departure Friday morning. Each week, campers will engage in various activities and programs tailored to specific weekly themes. Some activities that occur every week, no matter the theme, include swimming, crafts, campfires, outdoor learning, and recreational games.
