Brother Camp
Report
A brother/sister camp is actually two separate camps which come together from time to time for joint activities. Shohola and Netimus are both single sex camps, which have operated as brother and sister camps for over 60 years. The camps are 14 miles apart.
As parents, educators and former campers ourselves, we strongly believe that separate camps for boys and girls are wonderful places for children to express themselves and develop self assurance.Our camps encourage campers to celebrate their childhood without the pressures of a co-ed setting. Both Netimus for Girls and Shohola for Boys have an added bonus in that we offer opportunities, formal and informal, for campers to get together.
