The Camp Family Most staff members live in rustic cabins with electricity with four to six campers. These cabins share clean, modern bathhouses directly behind the cabin line. The mountaineering staff and some of the adult staff leaders live in private housing or cabins. All on duty counselors are required to attend meals which are served family style in the dining hall.
Salad bars are available at lunch and dinner, with fresh fruit at breakfast.
Meals are an important time to build camraderie and friendships with campers and fellow staff members. We encourage counselors with unique experience to offer workshops in other interest areas such as aerobics, jewelry making, sign language or basketry. Daily Schedule Merrie-Woode has a fairly structured daily schedule, although there is free time built in to each day. Inspection, rest hour, free time, and bed time are important cabin times. This is when cabin staff are expected to check in with their campers and provide leadership.
