FAQ 

 

Where do the campers stay at night? 


In air-conditioned dorms. There are several staff members on each floor at all times when the campers are in their rooms. Wherever possible we designate separate dorms for boys and girls. When we have only one dorm, we put boys and girls on different floors or sides of the building.


 

How do you handle security? 


We do a background check on all staff members. The campers are never left unattended. A staff member escorts them to classes and daily activities. The dorms are controlled-access. 

 

 

What are the requirements for staff? 


The counselors must be 18 or older and are usually college students with experience working with youth. The instructors are usually teachers or graduate students. CIT's are former campers. Many of the administrative staff members have been with the program for several years or camp experience. The nurses and super-counselors are certified and licensed. 

 

 

How many counselors per hall in the dorm? 


There is at least one counselor per colony (12 or fewer campers). We also house other staff members on floors with the colonies.

If your camper has a cell phone, although it will be powered off or on vibrate you can call them, they will be able to return calls when they are in the dorm.

(You may want to contact your desired roommates' parents in advance to be sure they agree with the assignment.)
