There has been a number of modifications to all camps based on COVID-19 guidelines. These changes have been made as safety is everyone’s top priority while maintaining a great camp experience for our campers. Camp WBOur action-packed day camp, Camp WB, features unique arts and crafts projects, sports, games and nature exploration and education.
