The weekend

Horseback riding, archery, canoeing, arts and crafts, nature, swimming, s'mores and an all-camp dance. Each family has its own cabin, and each family is paired with a volunteer buddy who takes the kids to activities so parents and caregivers can rest.

Many families say the best part is meeting other families who understand.

Questions families ask

Is there an age limit?

No. Camp Common Ground is open to families at any age.

Can parents get a break?

Yes. Your family's volunteer buddy takes the kids to activities.
