Alumni Winterfest
Often, many alumni are surprised to hear that Camp Jewell is a year-round operation that serves over 20,000 guests annually. The winter season is one of our busiest times of year! To accommodate our winter programs, camp offers several fun activities for families and friends to enjoy together.
As an Alumni Association Member, you and your family are invited to an exclusive day at camp that features snow tubing, snow shoeing, ice skating, cross country skiing and several indoor activities such as archery, bb’s and arts crafts. This year’s Winterfest is being held on Sunday, February 28 , 2010, from 11am to 4pm . Lunch and hot chocolate is included! There is no fee for this event and pre-registration is not necessary.
