The culmination of our summer camp season, the Buck's Rock Festival, is when parents, family, and friends share and enjoy the many accomplishments of our campers: their productivity, growth, and collective and individual successes. It’s definitely a memorable event, occurring on the final Saturday of camp!

There are exhibits of fine and creative arts, demonstrations in various studios and workshops, poetry readings, and a fashion show. In addition, Buck's Rock's Music Shed and Studio 59, Clown and Improvisation Studio, and Dance all perform throughout the day, presenting both new pieces and excerpts from previous performances. We serve a picnic lunch and dinner to all our guests, and as the conclusion to our summer session, our Summer Theater presents its final musical production for campers and visitors to enjoy.

The friendliness and warmth, the mutual respect and support, the cooperative and collective effort that makes this all possible, remain with us long after we return home. Festival is a celebration of all those qualities, a chance for families, campers, and friends to revel in all that has occurred in a summer. Buck's Rock never leaves us and we never lose the spirit that is Buck's Rock.
