 Hi from Jill!

 That little bit of spring-like weather really makes  you think about getting outside and getting busy!  Every year we have a growing number of enthusiastic people who ban together to help us open camp for the season.  They will tell you that volunteer weekend is a combination of fun, work, laughter, and play.  It is a great way to do something good for camp!  We have weekday and weekend crews in two different weeks!
  
Make plans to join in Volunteer Days at Camp Cavell!  
Thanks!  Jill
