While Your Camper is at Camp
And what you may be curious about!
Staying Connected
While we believe space and freedom are important for the overall camp experience, we also desire for parents to feel connected with their children during camp. And obviously campers love to hear from parents to know that they are loved and missed. Here are some ways you can stay connected while your camper is with us Learn more

Tye Dye Washing
Tye dye has to set, so if your camper does tye dye late in the week you’ll have to do a bit of washing when you get home for the best tye dye result:
-
Unwrap rubber bands and hang to dry completely
-
Once dry, wash (without other laundry) in cold water with ⅓ cup white vinegar per pound of fabric; around 3-4 tbsp per shirt
-
Hang or tumble dry (without other laundry)
-
You’re good to go! Some folks like to wash once more with detergent for good measure but it is not required.
