What should campers and volunteers expect?

Krewe de Camp offers a traditional camp experience, including arts-and-crafts, outdoor games, and swimming.  Campers and attendants participate in fun night activities, such
as a costume dance, a talent show, an outdoor fair and live music concerts. 

This is an excellent opportunity for high school students to fulfill their service hour requirements in a fun-loving atmosphere.  Please note that all high school volunteers
are aided by adults with several years of camp service.
