How much money should my child bring to camp?
There are two occasions for your child to spend money at camp: doing crafts or buying snacks from the canteen. We have a craft each day that is free, but all other crafts must be purchased (prices range for those from $.50 to $3.00). Snacks may be purchased several times during the day, (prices range from $.25 to $1.50). All can sodas are $.75 and all bottle drinks are $1.25. We suggest $2 to $3 a day. Remember, there is a bank and the campers can check out the money they need for the day.
My child is only eight (8). Can he/she come to camp?
Your child must be nine (9) by August 31 to be able to attend summer camp.

Should my child bring his gameboy or MP3 player to camp?
We would strongly advise that he didn't. These items may be used only at cabin time. Also, in the past we have had such items lost or stolen. If you choose to send them, please make sure they are labeled with the name of the child. We can't be responsible for any of these items that are lost or stolen.
Can parents visit?
No. We have found that visitors take away from the week's total experience.
Please inquire and call before showing up as this can cause a security disturbance.
