The first day of camp can be an anxious time for
everyone (camper and counselor, returner and 1st
time Hilltop camper). To help with the transition
and start with the fun we get you involved and
active right away!
When you arrive at camp you will be shown to your bunk and meet your cabin counselors and fellow cabin-mates. There is time for you to make your bed, unpack and get settled. There is also plenty of time for you to start making friendships with your bunk-mates that can last a lifetime. After lunch each cabin will sit down to get to know each other and discuss the cabin guidelines and camp rules, go on a camp tour, check-in with the Wellness Center and go to swim evaluations to get your buddy chip for waterfront activities.
Sundays are also the time when campers pick their four intensives for the week.
After a good dinner and a sing along at campfire you will be ready for a great night's sleep in place that is so quickly beginning to feel like "home".
