meet the mascots
It is a time-honored tradition that Camp Sunshine’s Mascots – Sunny the Bear, Chip Chip the Chipmunk, Lupi the Bear and Moxie the Moose welcome families to campus on the very first day of Camp. Here is a little more information about each mascot.

My favorite Camp activity is the pots and pans parade!

Salad bar! Chef Jon and the food service volunteers always keep it well stocked. I especially love the "Camp ranch!"
