😎Meet Mr. Jack, (but if you're a returning camper, chances are great you already have!) After successfully completing our CIT program two years ago, Jack spent the full summer last year volunteering at camp as a Jr. Counselor. He has more than earned his wings, and is joining us a full-fledged Camp Counselor this year... and we couldn't be happier to have him on our staff! He loves all of the outdoor activities at camp, and is looking forward to working with all of our campers this summer!

There's still time to Register!
