On thursday nights we have a program where the girls pay an extra fee and stay till 8pm for swiming and two other activites and dinner and then a performer an outside group and or or skits and singing at the chapel.

Also some weeks we have a sleep over for girls 4th grade and up. So everything above with added time for more camp fun before bed and breakfast in the am.

This is all counselor planned with different themes each week. We are trying to think of insentatives to get more girls to stay. Can anyone think of any that are good cheap and fun that would get more girls to want to stay?

Each age group at our camp above 5 years old has one late stay during the summer. It's pretty popular at our camp. Last summer every kid except for one were signed up to go (they all ended up going anyway, but that's a long story...). We do similar things to your late stays. We go swimming, have dinner, a couple activities, and we go to a place near the camp where the kids can go ice skating, play sports, or go in the "fun zone". The only difference between ours and yours is that ours is free. Maybe that's why not a lot of girls go at your camp?
