Both our son and daughter have attended Camp Echo Bay since Pre-K. After twelve years, we can only speak of the camp in superlatives. The camp is clean, safe, educational and staffed by truly wonderful people. I would recommend the camp to anyone.

When I think of Camp Echo Bay there’s one word that comes to mind and that’s HOME! Both my daughters have attended this camp since they were four years old and every year gets better and better. There are so many activities and fun things to do at this camp. A big plus for me as a parent is the on site swimming pool where the kids go swimming twice a day!!

Michelle BoggiMichelle Boggi, parent

My sons have been attending Camp Echo Bay since they were in Pre-K and now my oldest son is a counselor there. Camp Echo Bay is a fun and safe environment where my kids made friends, played games, and engaged in new activities. Each week they had a different theme that diversified the activities and made each day special for the campers!

What is the illness policy for contagious conditions?

Parents should notify the Main Office or Camp Director immediately if a child has a contagious illness (for example chicken pox, measles, lice, strep throat, or COVID-19). Families should not call the office for absences unless the absence is due to a contagious illness.
