Contribute to the Summer Camp Scholarship Fund! There are times that we have campers that are unable to afford the cost of Camp & Field Trips.  A fund has been established for the purpose of covering these costs in order for the youth to not miss out on these exciting opportunities.  If you would like to donate towards this fund, please visit the support us page for details & make a note that your donation is for the camp scholarship fund. Thank you!
