It is with heavy hearts that we share our decision to cancel the summer of 2020. While we have continued to plan, prepare, and hope for another transformative summer, the risks posed by COVID-19 threaten our most sacred value – the health and well-being of our campers, staff and community.  These risks also compromise our ability to provide the excellence in programming, community building and camper care that are characteristic of Camp Dark Waters.

Our ongoing dialogue with local, regional, and federal medical authorities, the Center for Disease Control and many leaders in camping, has led us to the difficult conclusion that there are too many known and unknown risks for us to create an acceptable pathway forward for camp to run this summer, so we are cancelling all summer sessions.
