Our Summer Camp Staff is hard at work, training and planning for Summer 2026! 😎

We're only 20 days away from the first day of camp, and couldn't be more excited. We asked the staff what their "WHY" is for working at camp this summer, and although each answer was unique, there was a strong common theme... our CAMPERS!!! We are ready to make this a positive, fun, safe, and memorable summer for our campers and camp families... time is running out to register for Summer Camp 2026.
