Additional Information
Hawks Cay's Environmental Program and Camp Hawk are open to guests of all abilities; however, the safety of our campers is our biggest priority. Daily participation requires that a child be able to stay with the group while outside on adventures, as well as to listen to and follow directions from the counselors. If your child has developmental concerns, communication differences, and/or would benefit from having a counselor 1:1, please provide us with 48-hours notice, so we can be properly staffed to support him or her. Further, we welcome your insights regarding your child, and will do our best to accommodate special requests. Our main goal is to create opportunities for all our campers to have a safe, fun and memorable time!
