M35 Supervision™

Milepost35 sets out to create a safe, fun, and educational summer camp experience. Our counselors are carefully selected out of hundreds of applicants to make sure that they are the perfect fit for camp. All campers have 24-hour SuperVision™, including a live in counselor. We have multiple check-ins throughout the day to make sure no camper gets left behind. Our private 28-acre campus is heavily guarded by a 24-hour gate attendant and is, of course, locked at all times. What is SuperVision™? Our tried-and-true program to make sure campers have the best supervision at all times.

SuperVision™

  • Milepost35 provides 1:2 staff-to-camper ratio overall. That’s one well-trained adult for every two campers.

  • Our SuperVision™ ratio for campers under 15 years old is one experienced adult counselor for every eight campers.

  • For campers over 15, there is one experienced counselor for every ten campers.

  • Campers are supervised on hill by their coach, in their coaching group of eight or less. Campers are not permitted to leave our private facilities without being accompanied by a staff member.

  • All camp lodging, facilities, and activities are supervised. Adult counselors live with campers in cabins and provide around-the-clock supervision 

GROM™  | CAMPERS AGES 9-12

Our youngest group at camp needs a little more SuperVision™, structure, and TLC than our campers ages 13-and-up. For these up-and-comers, we have at least one designated Grom Cabin each session.  

How is camp different for Groms?

Our Grom counselors provide that extra bit of attention to our youngest campers. Each day, Grom counselors make sure campers are showering, that they are eating more then just cereal for dinner, that their gear is dry, and that they have more than a chewy bar packed for lunch. All in all, Grom counselors make sure our youngest campers have everything they need, every day, to have the best possible experience at Milepost35.

Cell phones are also kept with the counselors at bedtime. We’ve found that “lights out” works best when Groms do not have their cell phones in bed with them. Texting and talking to parents during evening down time, when campers are tired, can feed feelings of homesickness. In addition, cell phone usage can be very disruptive to other campers trying to sleep.
