Monroe Twp. Summer Programs
Monroe Township Fly Camp
The purpose of Falcon Leadership Youth (FLY)
Camp is to involve all types of students in activities
where teamwork and leadership development are
emphasized. During the camp, students engage in
character building activities where many
opportunities arise for them to be leaders or to
simply just be part of a team.
“The activities change every year. Mainly, there are
activities in which teams have to solve challenges in
order to complete the activity before the other
teams. The idea is not to beat the other teams but to
complete the activity as part of a team. One of the
most unique elements of the camp is that students
are placed in randomly selected groups at the
beginning of the camp. Throughout the camp,
students are involved in activities with this random
group. You may start out knowing no one, but by
the end of the camp, you not only know their names,
but you know their strengths, weaknesses, and
overall capabilities to problem solve, -
