Food fuels the magic

Our meals are prepared by a dedicated kitchen crew. Many of our kitchen staff work in food service at local colleges during the year and enjoy spending their summers cooking for kids. They bring a lot of experience to camp and also enjoy being creative and trying new things.

​

Our goal is pretty simple: serve food that kids will eat, while also providing healthy choices and opportunities to try something new. Along with the main meal, there are always additional options available, such as sandwiches.

 

Our meals are nut-free, and we provide a vegetarian alternative whenever a meal includes meat. Our kitchen staff are experienced in accommodating gluten-free, dairy-free and other Top 9 food allergen needs. We work hard to make sure every camper has safe, satisfying options at each meal.

​

We partner with local farms to bring fresh, seasonal produce to camp whenever possible. What we get changes throughout the summer depending on what is growing and available.

​

Our kitchen team, nursing team and other camp staff work together to manage food allergies and dietary needs. We can't accommodate every diet or food preference, but we do our best to provide enough choices that campers can find something they enjoy.
