On the Ground at Camp
With the weather warming up, we were able to make our first trip down to camp. Upon arrival, it was discovered there is a fallen tree. Thankfully there were cabins damaged. This tree line is dearly loved by campers and staff, for the shade it provides. The fallen tree will be a great source of firewood, but will be missed.
Jobs at Camp
Be sure to check out our jobs page for our full list of openings.
Current open positions include:

How to Prepare Your Anxious Child for Sleepaway Summer Camp
“Going away to sleepaway summer camp is an exciting time for you and your child. But the fears and concerns your child may have about it are an opportunity for them to grow and mature! That’s because sleepaway camp is a chance for them to meet new people, have new experiences, and overcome some challenges. These are all valuable life lessons and just some of the benefits of going to camp."
Not sure what to pack for camp, don’t worry!! We’ve got a full packing list available.
