A Variety of Fun Activities at Wellspring Texas
Wellspring Texas campers enjoy a wide variety of indoor and outdoor activities, all designed to be FUN while helping campers build confidence in activities they'll continue to enjoy at home. Team sports, games, and activities are played in the air-conditioned gymnasium and throughout campus playing fields. Swimming activities, relay races, and water games take place in the newly renovated indoor pool. And the new fitness center is a hotspot for personal training, cardio workouts, weight lifting, aerobics classes, dances, and a variety of fitness classes.
Campers also take frequent trips to the many nearby natural attractions. Tubing and kayaking take place on the Colorado and Guadalupe Rivers. Rock-climbing and hiking the nearby trails are a welcome challenge. And special trips to SeaWorld, Six Flags, and Schlitterbahn– one of America's top water parks – make for a summer to remember. The result is the widest variety of teen fitness activities available at any Texas summer camp.

The environment at Wellspring Texas is incredibly supportive. Campers are surrounded by others who have struggled with their weight and understand their challenges. All activities are supervised by staff members trained in helping overweight campers gain confidence and learn new skills. Campers report learning to feel confident in their bodies and enjoying physical activity in a way they never imagined—even those campers who previously felt a sense of dread when asked to participate in gym class or group sports.
This unique environment plays a major role in significantly improving the physical fitness of campers, and contributes to rapid and dramatic weight loss during camp. Campers learn a new appreciation for an active lifestyle, and we have found this continues when campers return home. The wide range of activities ensures campers have an enjoyable summer just like they would at any camp. The difference between Wellspring and traditional weight loss camps or fat camps is that campers are losing a significant amount of weight and gaining the skills they will need to maintain or continue to lose weight at home.
