Who Are We & Why Choose Us?

We are a golf & sports camp at a beautiful prep school in the foothills to the Berkshires with a focus on “consistent golf” combined with a safe & enjoyable camp experience.

The Joel Ross philosophy is “Consistency Wins”. Consistency comes from confidence & confidence comes from practice. Morning practice on all the shots & an early start after lunch on the courses gives each camper the opportunity to improve & have fun!

Golf Facilities

On campus we have a 300 yard hole and our own driving range. It is an ideal setting to practice tee shots, the short game & sand wedges.

Our campers rotate daily on seven nearby courses:

Silo Ridge Golf Club, Amenia, NY - 18 holes
Harlem Valley Golf Club, Wingdale, NY - 9 holes
Dutcher Golf Club, Pawling, NY - 9 holes
Hotchkiss School Golf Club, Lakeville, CT - 9 holes
Quarry View Golf Club, E. Canaan CT. - 9 holes

Supervision

The full time golf staff supervises and instructs the campers in a ratio of 1:3/4. Our campers are divided into dorm groups by gender and age with two counselors assigned per group. Campers participate in many activities and electives in these groups. There is also a dorm group meeting each night before bedtime with milk & a snack served.
