Parents always like to hear from their camper and are often disappointed if they do not receive a letter. Your child can send home letters or postcards if you send them with stamped, pre-addressed postcards or envelopes (Cedarkirk does not sell stamps). Please remind them that they have letter-writing materials and to actually write! Campers will hand any mail to their counselors to be sent back home.

Summer campers can also send emails home to their families. You will receive an email sheet template attached to one of the emails you’ll get prior to your camper’s program starting. You may print a few of these, write in your email address, and send them to camp with your camper. Campers will hand any completed email sheets to their counselors to be sent out.

Many campers get busy and forget to write home – so please encourage your camper to use down time (like rest time or before bed) to dash off a quick note to you. Counselors will also remind them they can use that time to write a note home.
