#prospective families

Meet Us

We host several events for campers and families throughout the year to learn more about our programs. Scroll down to see when and where we’ll be!

Home Visits + Meet Ups

In the off-season, our staff are on the road hosting slideshows for new families in different cities around the US. Hosted by a current camp family, these events are a great way to meet our staff and other parents and learn more about our camps.

Tour our Camps

Are you a prospective family that wants to see camp? We are happy to give you a tour! Visit us in the spring, summer, or fall months for the best feel of camp. If you’re planning your visit in the winter, give us a call first and we’ll help arrange a time.

New Camper Events

Each spring we host New Camper events for new and returning camp families as well as families who may be considering camp for future summers.

Learn how to prepare for camp, meet camp staff, and get all your questions answered! These events may be in person or online.
