Housing, Health & First Aid, Food, and Clothing

Housing

  

College students and camp staff will assist middle school staff as cabin leaders.  Outhouses add to that 1800s touch!

 Health and First Aid

 

All middle school staff members have had first aid and CPR training.  Also included with the registration form is a short health form, asking you to give us insurance information and notice of any medical problems we should be aware of.  Please fill this out and return it with the deposit and registration.

Food and Cooking

 

As mentioned earlier, the students work in groups to do all of the cooking.  Blissfield Middle School provides the food.  With help from the cafeteria and bulk buying, we are able to provide good food in ample amounts for low cost.  If you have any dietary problems that we should be aware of please contact us.  Menus are available upon request.  Students who have had food allergies and who were diebetic or fussy eaters have experienced camp and loved it.  We are more than happy to work with you for your child's success.
