Silent Disco:
Embrace Quiet Hours at camp at our Silent Disco! Two deejays will play music through wireless headphones rather than a speaker system creating the ultimate silent dance party. Those participating in the silent disco will hear music from one of the two deejays through their headphones that may be the same or different from their neighbor dancing in the silent disco. Not only is this a blast to participate in but it is just as fun for those passing by that hear no music, watching an area full of people dancing to silence.
