SUMMER 2021
CORONAVIRUS COMMUNICATIONS & UPDATES

Dear Camp Community,
Greetings from Camp! We hope you are looking forward to summer 2021 as much as we are. We feel confident that we will be together again under the pines, with the loons on the lake, and bathing in the stars at night. We are fortunate in the camping and YMCA communities, that the YMCA Camp Values run through the industry, not just at our camp. Many day and overnight camps around the country operated this past summer and have been eager to share what they learned with us.
As you know, cancelling the 2020 camp season was one of the hardest decisions we have ever made at North Woods, Pleasant Valley and Sandy Island. We made the best of this summer by preparing camp for your return. The grounds have been cleared, wood has been split, chipped and burned. Buildings have been cleaned and painted. Ample doors, railings, decks, windows, and screens have been repaired, and the Loons Nest and Founders Lodge were completed.
We are now planning and prepping for operating the 2021 camp season. These plans are based on the current situation globally. We know things may change, but our hopes are that any changes will be to our benefit. Ensuring the safety of our campers and staff is and always will be our goal each summer, 2021 isn’t any different.
Below you will find links to our most current updates as well as contact information if you have further questions and need to speak with a camp staff member.
Wishing you all a safe and healthy winter. We will be counting down the days till summer.
All our best,
The Overnight Camp Staff Team
