Exercising Body and Spirit

Three afternoons a week, students participate in the Outdoor Activities Program (OAP). This two-hour block is an opportunity for the whole community to enjoy the fresh air, exercise our bodies, stretch our spirits, and explore all that this beautiful campus has to offer. We encourage students to bring their sports equipment to Chewonki and become involved in organizing sports and other outdoor activities that they particularly enjoy.  
  • A favorite school day block
  • Trail walking, biking, soccer, and tennis
  • Snowshoeing, ice skating, yoga, and aerobics

Favorite Sports for All Athletes

In warmer months, activities range from organized sports such as soccer, tennis, Ultimate Frisbee, and basketball, to more informal pursuits such as walking in the woods, running on the trails, or biking into town.

From Snowshoeing to Yoga

When the afternoons are shorter and colder, we offer indoor activities such as yoga and aerobics in addition to winter sports including snowshoeing and ice skating.
