 WHAT DO WE DO AT CAMP? 

Campers are placed into cabins with other campers of a similar age and at least one counselor and one CIT. Camp is themed, and every cabin has an individual theme as well. Everyone gets to go to eight different classes during the week. Classes include archery, canoeing, hiking, and more! Everyone can show off their acting skills during cabin skits on campfire night, and show off their dance moves at the themed camp dances. We eat a lot of good food, and there is time for swimming, kickball, and other activities. Camp can be one of the best experiences of being a kid- don’t miss out… it is A LOT of fun!!!

 COST: 

  • $200 for Campers and CIT’s. 
  • FREE for Counselors and Adult Volunteers. 
  • Adult Volunteers get one (1) child admitted free.  Any family sending three (3) or more children get $50 off of their total cost!
