About Camp Mac
- LEARN STUFF. DO THINGS. HAVE FUN.
  
  Camp gives children a unique opportunity to explore their strength, to find their courage, and to reach out beyond their comfort zone in an environment that is wholesome, supportive, and surrounded by nature’s beauty. Here, your child has the opportunity to explore activities he or she simply cannot do at home, in a way that is instructive and encouraging. The resulting self-confidence you will see in them is an immeasurable benefit that will last a lifetime.
