Telephone Calls

We discourage phone calls to or from camp because they can exaggerate homesickness. If we feel a call to Mom or Dad is needed, we will contact you. Please do not allow your camper to bring a cell phone with them.

Homesickness

Homesickness is a normal reaction to a new environment. Our camp staff is trained and experienced in dealing with homesickness.

Parents can help by:

  • Talking positively about the camp experience.
  • Don't express your own anxiety about the child being away from home.
  • Send along a favorite stuffed animal, family picture or other familiar item.
  • Send letters to arrive on the first or second day of camp.
  • Avoid phone calls to the camp.
