    Letter from a Camp Arowhon staff

      There’s something special about Arowhon that’s really hard to put into words until you experience it. The summer I chose to come to Arowhon I had a few different job options to consider, but I picked Arowhon. I had an incredible summer, and each one following has been even better. Clearly, I love the […]

    What is camp about?

    Dr. Chris Thurber captured camp in the recent issue of Camping Magazine: Camp is not about slick advertising. A camp’s popularity rises and falls on the tongues (and thumbs) of youngsters. Positive memories are shared by word-of-mouth or online messages from child to child, and sometimes through parents. For kids, it’s simple: They want to […]

  • Building a Giving Child

    I cut my foot rather badly one day this fall. It was a stupid clumsy stumble -whilst carrying a large and heavy vase. The result was a lot of blood, and the partial severing of my big toe nail. It happened, by coincidence, while both my kids  (ages 24 and 28) were nearby. The male […]

  • Camp is one of the rare places where kids can be themselves

    This was written by the staff member who received the most “likes” on our post-camp survey. How fantastic is it that at camp our boys can have role-models like this!?! We are so lucky to be welcoming Jonny Reed back for his second summer at Arowhon in 2014, and hope to have him around for […]

    New-school leadership can be summed up as LBSA: Leadership By Serving Around

    A former Arowhon Program Director – who grew up at camp and grew into being a great leader, emailed me the link to this Globe and Mail article on leadership, with the comment: “We were doing this at camp in 2001, Glad it’s caught on.” http://www.theglobeandmail.com/report-on-business/careers/leadership-lab/old-school-leadership-is-out/article15398192/

    The tallest tree in camp goes down

    We regret to announce  that camp’s sole remaining first growth white pine tree died this year. Yesterday  we took it down.  (It had to come down, for safety.) This year we saw the passing of two important symbols of Camp Arowhon – the tallest tree and the Main Lodge –  and we are sad to […]
