We Believe:
- that camp should be “child centered“ as opposed to “skill centered“
- that the facilities, program activities and staff are for the benefit of the child
- that camp should be a time and a place free from the competitive pressures that children must bear in our society
- that the camp program should stimulate creative minds, build healthy bodies and challenge adventurous souls
- that the qualities of cooperation and appreciation of others, learned in a camp setting, can best teach knowledge of oneself
- that the camp should provide for children the kind of experience that serves to develop and strengthen high standards of living and a realistic sense of values among them, a recognition of the inherent worth of every individual, a feeling of unity among all people, an awareness of and concern for the natural heritage of our earth, and a belief in God as the creator and preserver of all things.
Because our primary concern is for the physical, mental and spiritual growth and well-being of our campers, every effort is made to provide the highest quality environment possible.
I like camp because...
I can be myself...
Make new friends...
Try out a lot of different activities...
