What does camp taste like to you?
I get the taste of butterscotch caramel when I think of smelling umbrella tree. I would pass out the candy after hiking a tribe to the top of the ridge to quench the desire that sweet bark evoked in my mouth. You may think of smores, cocoa or how beans and rice never tasted as amazing as when you were on the trail at Camp.
Campers new and old will be forming their own preferred flavors of camp soon enough with a only a month until opening 2018.
Best,

Thank You Everyone!
We’ve had a great spring and I wanted to thank everyone for such a wonderful reunion and fundraiser. This was so much fun and all told we raised about $20,000 from the contributions surrounding it. Thanks for all the donations of time, items and money!
Camperships help kids get into the wild and this fundraiser really couldn’t happen with help from all of you. We really appreciate everyone that helps out.
Help us update the Camp Library
We keep a bookshelf stocked with teen and young adult books to help kids pass the quiet hours in the mountains. We have done some inventory and come up with a wish list. Help us fill it! Just follow the link to our shared google sheet or visit our amazon wishlist. We love used paperback books, so please feel free to scout while spring cleaning your shelves or perusing your local used book store.
2018 Family Days:
We can’t wait to see all the families this summer!
I wanted to remind everyone that although base camp is full, family days is just kicking into gear. So please sign up to save your spot soon, with all the new babies this year it should pan out to be a really amazing summer for everyone!
We have different options if your schedule is limited: The Family camp program runs Tuesday Aug. 21st through Sunday Aug. 26th with a weekday option, weekend option or a “pick your own adventure days”.
