Before camp begins, counselors participate in two weeks of intensive on-site training and preparation. This training focuses on building trust, fostering teamwork, and learning how to support our campers with care and confidence.

Our staff are also trained to create an inclusive, respectful environment where every camper feels valued and encouraged to be themselves. We prioritize not only physical care but also emotional support, helping campers build lasting friendships, develop independence, and foster self-confidence throughout their camping experience.

Additionally, counselors receive specialized instruction on understanding diverse needs, safety protocols, and emergency procedures to ensure every camper’s well-being is always our top priority.
