Teen/Camp Programming & Day Camp Workshop Committee

Please email Meghan Fenlon to join committee

Join other day camp and teen supervisors from the south suburbs to discuss camps, programs, trips, staffing, and other related topics. We meet once a month to try and coordinate on trips and programs so that they are more successful across the board. Want to come and bounce ideas off of others? We love that! We move locations each month so we can see each other's facilities.
