And these aren’t your casual friends. At camp you’ll make the absolute best friends of your life, the kind of friends you’ll always stay in touch with. That’s because camp is a place where you can be who you really are. No need to pose, no need to worry about who is [...]

When you ask people who attended a sleep away camp when they were a kid, you’ll find that they recall the experience, not only fondly, but also as one of the most important things they did as a child. A famous example here is Michael Eisner and his book about camp. There’s a lot [...]

Most Sunday afternoons at camp, we have an all-camp activity, a game or event where all of the age groups get together and play. Here’s an example where we split everyone up into three different teams (pink, blue and green!) and had different relay races… egg and spoon, leap frog, fill the cup, three-legged [...]
