After a year-long hiatus from youth camp, kids eagerly anticipated loading the car with all the essentials for a week-long Alaska Camps adventure. For many in the state, as well as the Lower 48, parents drive their children to camp. After turning over their cherubs to staff, they revel in the knowledge that they’ll have the house to themselves for a whole week! Parents want to give their kids the opportunity to make new friends, create memories and experience a bit of freedom in a secure and fun environment.
