-NO packages, please! If a necessity is inadvertently left behind, please call the camp office for a pre-approval code so that your package will be accepted and delivered to your camper. We do allow birthday packages, so please clearly label these as birthday packages with your child’s birth date. Remember: NO food is allowed!

Expert tip: Mail a letter to your camper a few days before camp starts so that there’s one waiting for him on the first day of camp.
