We encourage campers to write home each week. The first Tuesday supper of the session is our “Mail Meal” or “Ticket Tuesday.” Each camper is encouraged to write a letter home before entering the meal. A great suggestion is to send pre-addressed and stamped envelopes or postcards with your camper. We also have a supply of stationery and stamps in the camp store. If you do not hear from your child, please notify us so that we encourage them to write home. Please label the cabin name or number on the envelope when sending mail.

Please know that your camper’s first letter may indicate homesickness, but remember that they have just arrived at camp, which is not uncommon. However, if your camper’s consecutive letters are still upsetting, please contact us so that we can help address the situation.
