We have a no tipping policy at camp. Our staff are all aware of this policy so please do not put them in an uncomfortable position. Staff members who violate this policy may be subject to dismissal. You may show your appreciation to a deserving staff member by writing a personal note of thanks.

Pro-Visiting Day Tips:

• Many families like to bring picnic blankets and beach chairs to make themselves comfortable.
• Bring a refillable water bottle and sunscreen.

Building character, while making new friends and getting out of our comfort zone is what camp is all about. Showing empathy and integrity at camp helps to build ones character and we recognize that.

We recognize our campers who display important character traits at a weekly campfire with an “Owl Recognition.” 

Each week at our Friday Night Services, campers and staff are selected by the counselors and camp leadership to receive a ‘B’ or ‘E’ Award recognition. A plaque in each bunk lists the award criteria and camp staff speak about the characteristics throughout the week when discussing camper and staff expectations.

‘B’ Award (Blue Ridge)
‘E’ Award (Equinunk)

Friday night service: While we are not a religious camp experience, CECBR campers enjoy our traditional Friday night Shabbat dinner, followed by an inspirational and traditional community experience. 

• Each day includes a designated free swim period, and instructional swim takes place 4-6 days a week (depending on the age group). 
• All campers must pass a deep-water test before swimming in deep water, boating, or water skiing.

Registration is available through your MyEBR account or Campanion App account through your forms with an additional fee.

On Friday evenings before dinner, our campers come together for what we call “Blue Ridge Class.” This is a great opportunity for siblings, cousins, neighbors, and camp friends to visit one another. On Tuesday afternoons, we hold “Equinunk Class” as a special time for brothers and sisters to spend time together.

Being surrounded by your camp friends on your birthday is very special. Birthdays at camp include a mealtime celebration with cake and balloons. There is even a bunk party after evening TAPS!

All birthday packages can be sent, but must be clearly labeled as a birthday package.

 The following items are permitted in the birthday package:

• A birthday gift for your child
• Allergy-free candy for bunk party
• Birthday sash, hat, or decoration for your camper (CBR)
  

 The following items are not permitted in the birthday package:

• Customized Clothing (i.e. t-shirts, sweatshirts, tank tops, or clothing)
• Customized Accessories (i.e. hats, headbands, blankets, etc)   
• Party Favors, balloons, or Bunk Gifts
• Please do not send food delivery services or Goldbelly to camp.

As part of your camper’s birthday celebration, they can look forward to a Facetime video call home with their family.

If your child has a summer birthday, you will receive an email with specific details, including shipping information and scheduling the birthday video call.
