Cancellation for a session must be made at least 14 days before a session begins to receive a refund less deposit. The deposits are transferable if you have a balance on your account. Cancellations within one week of the session’s start day will be non-refundable. Campers who leave early and cannot return for the remainder of the session due to a medical condition will receive a pro-rated refund. Dismissal due to unsatisfactory conduct is not refundable. The Executive Director has the final decision in a dismissal. The $50/100 deposit is non-refundable regardless of circumstances.
🍴 Lunch
Balanced meals are prepared and served by the food service staff. Overnight campers eat family style meals in cabin groups in the dining lodge. For day campers, lunch is different every day. However, you can always pack your child lunch if they have certain preferences.
⚠️ Allergies
We are a nut-free facility and ask that no food or other products containing nuts be sent with a camper or in a care package. Note: If your child is vegetarian or has special dietary needs please include this on the online health form.
