The Army and Navy Academy is an all-boys boarding school in Carlsbad, California. Established in 1910, many of its alumni went on to become leaders in politics and business. Their mission is to bring out the best in each boy by teaching leadership, responsibility, and discipline.
The camps also pass on those values through a fun mix of daily training, team-building exercises, inspiring talks, and even field trips. It's not just two weeks of grueling drills and obstacle courses. Participants go adventure hiking, enjoy water sports like surfing and canoeing, and even go overnight camping in tents.
However, even the fun activities are designed to impart life skills, as they learn to face fears and work together as a team. By the end of the camp, they l emerge with more confidence in themselves as well as having formed life-long friendships.
