Senior Camper Information
Resident Camp is for children ages 8- to 15-years old. It has been an amazing time here at Coniston where experiences, friendships and memories are more valuable then one can express. We hope that you continue to
stay connected to camp by checking the website, talking in the discussion forum, giving donations, visiting when summer camp is not in session and emailing us in the office with current news and photos for future
newsletters and the website!
We have many questions about age eligibility and to help clarify things for all of our senior campers we have created a chart for quick reference. Below you can plug your age and grade in on the chart, and see what
camp program(s) you are eligible for.

Camp Alumni
After attending Camp Coniston as a camper or staff member, we encourage you to stay active as a Camp Coniston Alumnus. There are many ways to stay active in the Coniston community. Check the web site often, stay in touch with camp friends, and visit the camp during alumni events!
Promote the camp to your relatives, friends, and co-workers! Send your own children to camp!
Be sure to keep a current address on file with the camp so you can continue to receive the camp annual/calendar and notices about camp events and fundraising.
