Volunteer Day is one of our favorite camp traditions ☀️

It’s the day we all come together to paint, clean, fix, organize, and bring camp back to life after the off-season. Every swept cabin, fresh coat of paint, and helping hand gets us one step closer to an unforgettable summer full of laughter, memories, and camp magic. Whether you’re a longtime camp family member or joining us for the first time, we’d love for you to come help make camp shine and be part of the fun!
