In addition to soliciting information during registration regarding your camper’s fluency, we will be using our first day of camp to gauge and adjust our group placements. 

Be assured that due to the small and family-oriented nature of our camp, friends or siblings in different groups will see plenty of each other during group games, lunch, swimming, hikes and more. Summer_Camp.htmlSummer_Camp.htmlshapeimage_2_link_0shapeimage_2_link_1
