CAMP FACILITIES: We have 12 cabins, bathhouse, recreation/dining hall, nurse's and director's cabins, outdoor volleyball court, and rustic amphitheater.

CAMP LEADERSHIP CIT/LIT PROGRAMS: Our Counselor-in-Training (CIT) program is a one-week (7 days, 6 nights) experience for teens ages 15 to 17. This long-running program allows counselors to participate in personal development activities and discussions to give them skills in communication, leadership, greater good, positivity, and inclusion. With these skills, they will be ready to be leaders at camp and in their day-to-day lives. If selected, counselors will be asked to return for the camper weeks to put their skills into action (and earn community service hours).

Bathrooms are generally shared (suite-style) among a couple of bedrooms. The oversized rooms feature high-speed, wireless internet access and central air conditioning.
