Group Division
The Camp is divided into four main "Groups" according to the age and/or maturity of the camper. These groups are headed by experienced group leaders and are staffed with able counselors, all of whom remain with their group throughout the day.

Each main group is divided into smaller groups to maintain quality and a proper camper-counselor/CIT ratio. This ratio is about 4:1 for the youngest campers and about 6:1 for the older campers.
 

Lunch
  Campers bring their own lunch which is refrigerated. The camp will provide each camper with milk or lemonade. A morning and afternoon snack is provided daily.
 

Rainy Days
  In the event of rain, the schedule is modified to provide indoor activities in our extensive facilities.
