Meet Our Year Round Staff

Every summer we have over a hundred counselors, junior counselors, and specialists come to our camp to help make each summer the summer of a lifetime. However during the cold winter months we have a small group of year round staff that work diligently to get camp ready for the Summer. Each of them help in making camp a reality for our campers and staff.
