Can parents be Crewmembers?
In most cases, no. Our Camps are about giving parents and families a break. Also, campers perform better for their Crewmembers without their parents on the grounds. Parents have time to discuss their child’s needs when they drop them off. Though there is always a tendency for parents to wish to volunteer, our experience has been that it is best if the campers are allowed to participate with autonomy. Siblings and other relatives are welcome to serve as Crewmembers. There are often roles that parents can fulfill. These are considered on a case-by-case basis and must be discussed with Dr. Yeager.
