NEW THIS YEAR: Campers may purchase items using GIFT CARDS bought at check-in on Sunday. Gift Cards will help expedite our service to your camper with shorter lines in the Gift Store.
Your camper can make purchases at both locations with cash, debit or credit cards as well. Parents will be able to check their camper's gift card balance throughout the week by taking a picture of the gift card on Sunday and using the QR code whenever they would like to check their current balance.
We work closely with parents and campers to accommodate food allergies and dietary needs. Please be sure to note any dietary restrictions in your camper's Campwise account under the Medical & Liability Release Form so we can plan accordingly and have adequate quantities of specialty food items on hand for your child.
While gluten-free, vegetarian, and vegan options are available at every meal and clearly labeled, we are unable to fully accommodate campers with Celiac disease. Our kitchen handles gluten-containing ingredients, and we cannot guarantee the absence of cross-contamination. However, we do provide a dedicated fridge in the dining hall specifically for Celiac campers who need to bring their own food.
