Camp Life
Of course there's more to camp life than just activities! At Hidden Valley Camp we pride ourselves on creating a warm community where everyone feels welcome. Our cabins are comfortable yet rustic - each one has electricity but no phones/TVs/internet access so kids can unplug from technology while still staying connected with nature/friends/family back home via snail mail/postcards/care packages/etc.. Meals are served family-style in our dining hall which features fresh ingredients sourced locally whenever possible.
Staff & Safety
We know how important it is for parents/guardians to feel confident that their children will be safe while away at camp. That's why we take staff training very seriously: all counselors undergo extensive background checks before being hired; they also receive ongoing training throughout the summer season covering topics such as first aid/CPR certification/emergency procedures/child development/etc.. In addition there is always at least one nurse on duty 24/7 during each session who oversees medication distribution/treatment plans/etc..
