Every cabin goes on two camping trips during the summer, one first session and one second session. In [[lower camp]] two cabins go on a trip together but in [[upper camp]] cabins go on their own trips. Another difference in upper camp is that cabins usually go one one canoing trip and one hiking trip, while in lower camp cabins usually just do hiking trips. All trips are lead by a [[trip leader]], either a stand in or an official trip leader who only leads trips for the whole summer.
