It’s 2022! Do We Know Where Our Staff Is?

Absolutely we do! We have an amazing foundation set of core staff that have signed on and are ready to make the summer of 2022 one for the record books! Back in late 2021, many staff contacted us to say they would like to return. This ensures that we will have veteran staff members in place to lead the charge in another great summer underneath the towering white pines. Many of our key positions have been filled, and cabin counselors and trip staff are coming into the fold. If you want your name added to this list, give us a shout!
