Note to Parents
Purpose: The daily activities of Grange camp
are designed to help kids enjoy the experience
of a camping program; to learn about the Grange
family; and above all, to have fun!
There is always something to do at Jr. Grange
Camp. The daily program includes wholesome
activities, healthy excercise and a fun camping experience. The camper will learn about the Grange
and make many new friends. Throughout the day
they will be encouraged to become leaders and
have fun. It is not necessary for the camper nor
their parents to be members of the Grange, but if
you are not a member we encourage you to talk to
one of the camp staff about learning more about
this family organization.
