Miss Dowagiac and her court visited us one day for a tour of the camp! Our very own counselor, Abbey just so happens to be on the court! The queens helped out during craft time and were able to share with the campers about some of their duties!

More Fitch Camp fun!
âWill we have camp today due to the weather?â This is a common question that we hear. We do have an indoor space that campers can use if the weather is inclement, so we rarely close camp. If the weather is severe enough and we do have to cancel, we will make a post on this page.
