Why Kids and Parents Alike Loved Family Camp at Camp Howard


When John Scott was leaving, he leaned over and shared with me that we have a good thing going here at Camp Howard.  John and his extended family had stayed the weekend having fun with us at Family Camp 2026.  It meant a lot to hear that from John because it is true, we do have a good thing going here and I am just glad it shows!

The dust from the busses had hardly settled Friday night when cars began rolling in, ready for Family Camp.  Every cabin was scheduled, twenty staff members stayed on to make some great memories for the families who chose to spend their weekend at Camp Howard. 

I cannot say enough about the youth leaders who changed their roles at camp for the weekend and did a super job, working in the kitchen, running programs, helping at campfire, making sure people had a great time. 

Families had the run of the camp to try out several of our programs and get a taste of what their children might expect from a week at the camp.  It was also a great opportunity to let the kids get comfortable in the environment and excited about coming as a week-long camper.

The families had a wonderful time at the camp, enjoyed the food, games, programs, campfires and interaction with staff.  It was a very memorable campout, and we thank all our families for taking part!

I’m not sure what could be more fun than spending time with you and your loved ones at Camp Howard this summer. As for me, I come to the office most days during the summer but stay at the camp in the evenings and parts of other days especially Fridays. It is a wonderful experience to be at the camp and breathe the great outdoor air. I would LOVE to share that with you!

Consider joining several of the staff and I for family camp July 31 – August 2, 2020 at Camp Howard. https://cyocamphoward.org/Layouts/evolved/Content.aspx?d=RehqjLdx3v1v43hsy7lfk%2bs3Y0h1XDUboIu9B1LISrU%3d

The reason I encourage family camp is that it is a great way for parents to check out the camp, initiate your children in the wonderful aspects of camping, and get a sense of what the camp and the people are all about. You will truly not be sorry!

Family camp is a great time for good conversations, rest, relaxation (we cook for you) and family fun. You sleep together in a cabin and enjoy watching your children participate in fun camp activities. There are also campfire talent shows where you and your family can come up with a talent act to do together.

Camp Howard is an ACA (American Camping Association) accredited camp with high standing in the camping industry. Please join us for the summer of 2020!
