Social media handles found on the site are @eaglevillageinc for Instagram and eaglevillageinc for Facebook.

Who thrives here Ages 14–17
Project Survive - Boys Session 1 serves high-school campers, which means the program is competing against summer jobs, college visits, internships, and residential overnight options. The case for a day camp at this age is usually a CIT (counselor-in-training) track, deep specialization in adventure, or a portfolio item parents and kids both value. Programs that don't articulate one of those three usually lose this age band by 9th grade.
