Overnight summer campers will join a group of fellow peers to create a cabin team. Cabin mates will be of the same gender and will remain the same throughout the week. This provides the opportunity for strong social connections and lasting friendships to be made within each cabin. Campers will also learn and exhibit responsibility by helping to keep their cabin neat and tidy. Each air-conditioned cabin will have two camp staff that supervise their campers in the cabin at night. During the day, various camp staff will take turns supervising campers during activities, with a minimum ratio of 1:8 adults to youth being maintained, as well as no less than two camp staff with campers.
Mealtimes are some of the bests of times, as we all love some good food! Meals are prepared by trained and certified kitchen camp staff, with nutrition, kid food favorites, and dietary needs being at the forefront of meal preparation and planning. Camp Timpoochee’s dining hall provides space for campers to relax and enjoy filling up on food, while spending some social time with friends. If campers have any dietary restrictions or needs, please make sure to indicate that on the camper’s health form during registration. We will try and accommodate as many dietary needs as we can safely do. If any camper would prefer to bring their own snacks and/or meals due to a dietary restriction, please talk directly with the Camp Timpoochee director to further discuss this need.
