CAMP TUDU

Our Mission and Philosophy


CAMP TUDU is about doing, not watching.  It's about enjoying nature and being outdoors, as well as working together in team-building challenges.  Mutual respect and trust form between campers as they rely on one another and create memorable experiences with new friends.  As campers receive praise and encouragement from their counselors and their peers, they grow in self-confidence and competence, with social skills and friends that last for years to come.

It is a charitable; not for profit organization that welcomes all people regardless of age, race, religion or economic status and strives to enrich each and every life through a unique, dynamic combination of programs that strengthen spirit, mind and body.  CAMP TUDU embraces the values of Caring, Honesty, Respect and Responsibility.


Program Philosophy

The camp experience should provide children with an opportunity to make new friends, learn new skills, develop their character, build their self esteem, and feel safe and accepted.  Children should leave camp each day better for their experience having felt valued and appreciated.  Camp teaches children how to appreciate the accomplishments of others, how to make others feel valued, and fosters responsibility. By watching and emulating their role models, children learn to display good manners, conduct themselves positively and challenge themselves to be better people.  Most of all, Camp is a place where a child can be a child free from the worries of peer pressure, bullying and the search to be accepted.  At Camp every child will feel welcome and part of something bigger than themselves.  They will be a part of a community where their individuality is welcomed and supported.
