What are Camp Mason’s camper to staff ratios?
This is a trick question. Anyone who gives you a simple answer is being misleading. Ratios are complex. For instance, our overall staff to camper ratio is about 2.75:1. However, that includes specialists and activity leaders, etc. Here is the real scoop. In the cabins, each group of 8 -10 campers will have a minimum of two bunk counselors, often three. At the activities, something needing higher levels of supervision such as riflery may be 3:1, while something simpler such as softball may come in at 8:1. Out-of -camp trips are 4:1 or better. However, no matter how small the group, there are always two staff around.
