Why do so many campers come back year after year?
Although there are probably lots of different reasons campers come back to camp, we know one of the reasons campers return year after year is because of our coaches & counselors. Not only is our camper to staff ratio an impressive 3:1 (90 campers and nearly 30 staff!) but our staff is a dynamic, enthusiastic team who are truly concerned about each player.
