Counselor Training-

Camp counselors training will be held on Thursday, May 30th from 5pm to 7pm in Adams-Friendship at the Extension Office (569 N Cedar St, Adams WI, 53910). Although this training is not required, it is a great opportunity to attend and meet the great youth counselors that you will be working with! More information and exact meeting location will be sent at a later date.

Camper Orientation–

We are hosting a camper orientation on June 2 from 7-8PM on Zoom. This is a new meeting for campers to get to know more about the schedule, meet some of the people they will see at camp, and a chance to ask any questions about camp. This is an optional meeting but is a great opportunity to meet your campers ahead of time and start developing the youth-adult relationships we like to see at camp!
