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, -
