RLYC believes that every child deserves the opportunity to experience nature at it fullest by attending summer camp. Therefore, we make an effort to focus on nature – which means no TVs, computers, cell phones, IPODS, etc. We do have a camp phone and we encourage snail mail to our campers from family and friends. We look forward to seeing YOU this summer!
