SUMMER CAMP
registration for 2025 opens in January!
learn more about our 2025 registration process here!
With a 1 to 4 staff to camper ratio, we offer campers ages 8-12 a wide variety of activities -- from tee shirt printing to ceramics, paddle boarding to snorkeling, and extreme sports to camping, just to name a few! With a rotating activities schedule, there’s never a dull moment. You’ll find campers making friendship bracelets or ice cream, learning archery, on a camp-wide scavenger hunt, canoeing on our lake, hiking and exploring, and jumping on our water trampoline. And of course the gaga ball pit is never empty. After dinner, campers participate in the evening olympic games and campfire. The days are full and the days are fun!

Counselor

Training
Week-Long
entering
9th grade
Counselors in Training spend the week paired up with a counselor and learning all about what it takes to be one of our summer camp counselors. They help supervise a cabin, lead daily activities, and get the afternoons to hang out on the lake. This is a great opportunity for a mature camper looking to take on a larger role with more responsibility at camp.
CITs must be returning campers entering 9th grade and may only enroll for one session as a CIT.
Please see T1D Buddy Camp information for more on being a CIT for that program.
