When medical support is needed, it is immediately provided – expertly, with compassion, and with as little disruption as possible
to the camper’s activities. We think nothing of venturing out on a canoe to administer a medication at the correct time, rather than make a camper come in from the fun.

We rely on the support of individuals, corporations, foundations, and friends just like you to make this magical place possible.
