Summer may be over, but Camp Fire magic continues! Hear from our Camp Director and explore our upcoming events and break camps:
A Note from our Camp Director
As summer winds down, we prepare for the school year with sore muscles, some amazing sandal tan lines, and most importantly, full hearts from the memories we’ve made. That feeling will stay with us all year until we can welcome your campers back for another season of silly skits (that often make no sense but have us laughing for days), new challenges, and friendships both old and new.
Thank you for trusting us with your child. As parents ourselves, we know how important every person in their life is, and how even one moment can make a lasting impact. We hope to see you next summer but until then, we’d love to welcome you back for one of these upcoming events!
Until next summer!
