A
good camp experience is an investment in your child's
future - the skills, attitudes, and values learned there
can and often do last a lifetime. We hope that you will
read through this website carefully, compare it critically
with other camps' material, call us on our 800 number,
ask questions, request our brochure, watch the videotape… then
make an active, informed choice with the participation
of your child / children.
This
section of our website is intended to answer some of the
more detailed questions we have been asked over the years
by our camp parents. The menu bar on the left will help
you navigate through the pages of this section. For an
overview of our program orientation and philosophy, we suggest
that you first take a look at the pages of the first section,
called "Our Program."
Growth
and Education through Fun and Adventure
There
are three things, at least, that we as parents must give
our children:
Love,
protection, exposure . . .
The
first two come naturally for us; the third... sometimes
doesn't. As a child is ready, he or she reaches out for
exposure to new and different people, experiences, ideas.
We must encourage this independence, while providing adult
perspective, guidance, and boundaries. Controlled exposure
then becomes fun and adventure, and a tremendously valuable
educational experience.
