From the outstanding staff, wonderful facilities and the material learned while at camp, the UCA program is incredible. The attention and dedication given to the young people is amazing and always top-notch. I can honestly say that I enjoy camp each year because of the UCA Staff and our overnight camp experience. I feel that 20+ years should attest to the fact that the UCA program is second to none.'\" <cite>Coach Nicole<\/cite><span class='position'>Carroll County High School<\/span><\/blockquote><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div class='wrap-tcm-slide'><div class='wrap-tcm-slide-title'><h4 class='text-center text-uppercase'>Photo Gallery<\/h4><\/div><div class='tcm-slider slick-slider   middle-arrows-position' id='' data-slides='4' ><div class='slick-slide slick-slide-gallery ' id=''><div class='wrap-slide-gallery'><article class='post post-gallery' ><a href='https:\/\/www.varsity.com\/uca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/fall18_ucaschoolclpgeneric_gallery1.jpg' data-rel='lightcase:myCollection:slideshow' data-lc-categories='lightcase-_tcm_carousel69e18de7a7bf90.67337355'><img src='https:\/\/www.varsity.com\/uca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/fall18_ucaschoolclpgeneric_gallery1.jpg' alt='' \/><\/a><\/article><\/div><\/div><div class='slick-slide slick-slide-gallery ' id=''><div class='wrap-slide-gallery'><article class='post post-gallery' ><a href='https:\/\/www.varsity.com\/uca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/fall18_ucaschoolclpgeneric_gallery2.jpg' data-rel='lightcase:myCollection:slideshow' data-lc-categories='lightcase-_tcm_carousel69e18de7a7bf90.67337355'><img src='https:\/\/www.varsity.com\/uca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/fall18_ucaschoolclpgeneric_gallery2.jpg' alt='' \/><\/a><\/article><\/div><\/div><div class='slick-slide slick-slide-gallery ' id=''><div class='wrap-slide-gallery'><article class='post post-gallery' ><a href='https:\/\/www.varsity.com\/uca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/fall18_ucaschoolclpgeneric_gallery3.jpg' data-rel='lightcase:myCollection:slideshow' data-lc-categories='lightcase-_tcm_carousel69e18de7a7bf90.67337355'><img src='https:\/\/www.varsity.com\/uca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/fall18_ucaschoolclpgeneric_gallery3.jpg' alt='' \/><\/a><\/article><\/div><\/div><div class='slick-slide slick-slide-gallery ' id=''><div class='wrap-slide-gallery'><article class='post post-gallery' ><a href='https:\/\/www.varsity.com\/uca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/fall18_ucaschoolclpgeneric_gallery4.jpg' data-rel='lightcase:myCollection:slideshow' data-lc-categories='lightcase-_tcm_carousel69e18de7a7bf90.67337355'><img src='https:\/\/www.varsity.com\/uca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/fall18_ucaschoolclpgeneric_gallery4.jpg' alt='' \/><\/a><\/article><\/div><\/div><div class='slick-slide slick-slide-gallery ' id=''><div class='wrap-slide-gallery'><article class='post post-gallery' ><a href='https:\/\/www.varsity.com\/uca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/fall18_ucaschoolclpgeneric_gallery5.jpg' data-rel='lightcase:myCollection:slideshow' data-lc-categories='lightcase-_tcm_carousel69e18de7a7bf90.67337355'><img src='https:\/\/www.varsity.com\/uca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/fall18_ucaschoolclpgeneric_gallery5.jpg' alt='' \/><\/a><\/article><\/div><\/div><div class='slick-slide slick-slide-gallery ' id=''><div class='wrap-slide-gallery'><article class='post post-gallery' ><a href='https:\/\/www.varsity.com\/uca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/fall18_ucaschoolclpgeneric_gallery6.jpg' data-rel='lightcase:myCollection:slideshow' data-lc-categories='lightcase-_tcm_carousel69e18de7a7bf90.67337355'><img src='https:\/\/www.varsity.com\/uca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/fall18_ucaschoolclpgeneric_gallery6.jpg' alt='' \/><\/a><\/article><\/div><\/div><div class='slick-slide slick-slide-gallery ' id=''><div class='wrap-slide-gallery'><article class='post post-gallery' ><a href='https:\/\/www.varsity.com\/uca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/fall18_ucaschoolclpgeneric_gallery7.jpg' data-rel='lightcase:myCollection:slideshow' data-lc-categories='lightcase-_tcm_carousel69e18de7a7bf90.67337355'><img src='https:\/\/www.varsity.com\/uca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/fall18_ucaschoolclpgeneric_gallery7.jpg' alt='' \/><\/a><\/article><\/div><\/div><div class='slick-slide slick-slide-gallery ' id=''><div class='wrap-slide-gallery'><article class='post post-gallery' ><a href='https:\/\/www.varsity.com\/uca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/fall18_ucaschoolclpgeneric_gallery8.jpg' data-rel='lightcase:myCollection:slideshow' data-lc-categories='lightcase-_tcm_carousel69e18de7a7bf90.67337355'><img src='https:\/\/www.varsity.com\/uca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/fall18_ucaschoolclpgeneric_gallery8.jpg' alt='' \/><\/a><\/article><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div class='wrap-accordion-container ' id=''><div class='wrap-accordion-container-title'><h4>Camp Notes<\/h4><\/div><div class='accordion-container ' data-accordion-id='_accordion_content69e18de7aa2415_61123638' id=''><div class='accordion-header'><div class='wrapper'><h4 class='title'>Camp &amp;
