Scholarship Fund
Help send a deserving child to camp. Each summer we offer full and partial camp scholarships to children of families in financial need from the surrounding area. Please consider donating whatever you can toward our camp scholarship fund. A little bit can make all the difference to a child who wouldn't normally be able to go to camp.
