Can my child call home?

Phone calls disrupt a camper’s daily activities and can hinder a camper from fully enjoying the camp environment. Moreover, experience proves that phone calls tend to increase homesickness. We do allow campers to call home on Friday only if absolutely necessary. If you want your camper to call home, please provide him or her with a calling card for long distance calls to cell phones as mobile services do not accept collect calls. Prior to Friday, telephone communication with a camper is limited to emergency situations only, which must be approved by a Camp Director. Don’t be alarmed if your child doesn’t call; just assume “no news is good news.”
