Our campers are ages 8-16 and we basically cater to a healthy, mainstream population. However we have some camper with specific medical issues, such as: asthma, diabetes and a variety of allergies (food, environmental, etc.). We are a peanut aware facility, meaning we do not guarantee that our food supply comes from a nut free factory and there are no nuts in the products we serve. We have a special needs cook, on staff who works with our gluten free campers and staff and other members of our community with other food allergies.

Our Medical Staff and First Responders:

We have one doctor and four nurses on staff, in camp for the first session and one doctor and three nurses on staff for the second session. Additionally, we have over 30 staff members who are certified in First Aid/Responding to Emergencies, CPR and AED.

We need the entire Health Center Team on duty in the morning for medication distribution at the Dining Hall during breakfast and at the Health Center for Sick Call and again in the evening after Evening Activity. We have Sick Call after breakfast, lunch, dinner and evening activity and need coverage for these times, as well. We always have one staff member on call at night. The Camp Nurses and Camp Doctor work together to create a schedule that both covers the Health Center and allows for time off. All Camp Staff are entitled to six days off during the full season.

We have 185 staff and approximately 325 campers first session and 250 campers second session. The weather is great, with low humidity and temperatures during the day in the high 70’s – low 80’s and at night in the mid 50’s – mid 70’s!
