At Stone Mountain Adventures, there’s a rhythm to camp life—but once a week we flip the script with All Camp Day. This legendary tradition gives everyone a break from the usual schedule and a full day to laugh hard, recharge, and create memories that will stick long after summer ends.

Session 2’s All Camp Day theme was Opposite Day, and campers dove in head‑first, turning everything upside down in the most creative ways imaginable. Cabin skits were wild, weird, and wonderful—costumes, clever twists, and wholehearted commitment included. After plenty of brainstorming, rehearsals, and belly laughs, each cabin performed its skit in front of the Bunk Inspectors and staff. They absolutely brought the house down.

All Camp Day is more than skits. The morning starts with a late wake‑up (yes!), followed by a special breakfast of donuts, bagels, and good vibes. Next comes Cabin Deep Clean with a twist: groups must tidy up while weaving skit practice into the mix. It’s teamwork, imagination, and fun rolled into one.

After lunch, campers head out for afternoon activities, then return for one of our favorites—the camp‑wide barbecue. Good food, music, and friends set the tone for the evening meeting, where we introduced the SMAM Program (Stone Mountain Activity Masters). This system encourages campers to try new things and earn the coveted SMA water bottle.

The day ends with Candlelight, a reflective circle where we share thoughts, dreams, and gratitude as one camp family. All Camp Day packs creativity, connection, and community into every moment—whether campers are scrubbing floors, staging skits, or soaking up sunshine at the lake, they’re learning, growing, and building friendships for life.
