Camp Cadicasu Open House May 27th, 2012. From 2-4:30 PM at Camp!
Cadicasu has given the campers who have attended for over 80 years, a unique opportunity to experience the pure joy of summertime fun and friendship.
We pride ourselves on creating a safe environment where children are supported as they play and grow together. Cadicasu is an overnight camp offering a program of activities from athletics, arts and adventure.
At Cadicasu we constantly encourage our campers to take on new challenges and interests, but most of all have fun! Cadicasu offers exceptional care; extraordinary friendships; empowered campers and endless possibilities.
Registration for the 2012 season will begin in December 2011. All registrations are on a first-come, first-served basis.
We look forward to seeing many old friends return, and some new friends we have yet to meet!
We are inclusive. And that's not just talk. We live that philosophy by welcoming children and youth regardless of race, religion, socioeconomic status. Camp Cadicasu is committed to coeducation, providing opportunities for boys and girls to grow together.
Nature is in our nature
When kids get to learn how beautiful their world is--they can make it even better.
We emphasize fun ways to explore nature and learn how to protect it. Whether in the inner city or in a camp, the environment provides a perfect laboratory for discovery, curiosity, compassion and concern. Youth are at their best when they can embrace these traits.
Kids can change the world. It is our goal to show them how to begin.
