Can we send mail or care packages?
For a number of reasons, we do not allow "snail" mail or care packages, but we do still offer our one-way email service.
It’s true! Based on years of feedback from parents and industry research we did into the topic, we have eliminated snail mail and care packages from our program.
Why?
From the unreliability of USPS to our locations, to the equity dynamics this creates from one camper to another, to its effect on our goals of community we have for our program, this decision has had an incredibly positive impact for our culture here at camp.
Don’t worry! We will still be offering our one-way email service for all families to get in touch with their campers, which is far more reliable here at camp and faster for all families. Campers will still be able to send letters home, keeping up with this classic summer camp tradition.
As always, our staff are at camp throughout the season and here to help with any needs you have! Please feel free to give us a call during the season. You can find this contact info on the Pre-Camp Guides for each respective camp.
