Additionally, staff members live in a cabin with one or two other counselors, and share responsibility for the care of a group of campers. We look for mature, creative, independent people who have interesting backgrounds and previous experience with children. Staff come from all over the U.S. as well as about 15 staff people from nations such as Australia, Sweden, Britain, Holland, etc. About 40 U.S. states and other countries were represented last summer. This is an active, creative group of children, oriented to our non-traditional camp values.
Campers have many choices within a supportive structure.
In our informal atmosphere, we minimize hierarchy and foster independence and creativity among staff members. A variety of fresh foods. Plenty of seconds and choices, including a lunchtime salad bar. And a balanced vegie alternative at all meals.
