Who We Are

Founded in 1940, Maude Eaton has a history of bringing the outdoor experience to a diverse population of girls. We take pride in the quality of our staff and our commitment to girl planning. Girls at camp are offered the opportunity to plan all camps, special events, and their daily activities.

A ratio of 1 counselor to 6 campers is typical. Campers are placed in units by age. Counselors are responsible for the conduct of the unit and working with the girls to ensure a great session is had by all. Counselors must be fun-loving, patient and genuinely concerned for the welfare and development of young people.

Camp Maude Eaton is known for the maturity, quality and the caring attitude of its counselors. We are proud that many of our staff members return year after year. All of our staff members are selected entirely on the basis of their ability to effectively relate to children.

The entire counselor staff, both new and old, attend 24 hours of training before the beginning of camp. Pre-camp training is a time for staff members to get to know each other and build the team for summer. There usually are sessions around safety, badge work, late nights, working with kids skills, and plenty of time to learn songs, games, and outdoor skills.

A bond that binds the entire Maude Eaton staff is an unrelenting commitment to help each girl enjoy every day of her summer at camp.
