Campers are not allowed to bring cell phones to camp. At camp we believe strongly in the value of showing campers how to build close relationships and live in community. Providing an atmosphere free from cell phones helps create this community. If found, staff will confiscate the cell phone for the remainder of the session. Please do NOT pack a cell phone for your camper. If you are concerned about needing to get in touch with your camper during the week, please call our office so that we can make a plan together.
Talking with your child before they leave for camp will help to ease the transition away from cell phones and other electronics. Let your child know that if they are feeling sad, afraid, or lonely, there is always someone they can reach out to at camp, whether it is their counselor, another staff member, the First Aid Coordinator, or even the Camp Director.
