Caribou’s boxing program is one of a kind in camping. Bill Lerman, who was an amateur boxer himself, instituted the program in the mid 70’s and it’s been flourishing ever since. He was trained by Mike Berg, founder and developer of the Academy for Physical and Social Development in Newton, Massachusetts. The program is founded in teaching all of the fundamentals of boxing. The boys learn 8 combinations, 25 different moves and eventually will spar with both the instructors and their peers. All the safety precautions have been taken with the most up to date equipment available. Boxing is an elective program offered each afternoon. It’s a unique form of expression that builds self esteem, confidence and conditioning.
