Camp Jewell Alumni

What an incredible weekend celebrating 125 years of Camp Jewell!

Nearly 500 alumni, families, former staff, friends, and current campers came home to camp—representing generations from the 1960s through today. The weekend was filled with camp songs, stories, laughter, reunions, old photos, and plenty of new memories.

The best part was seeing the feeling of community that makes Camp Jewell so special. People shared memories of the counselors who believed in them, the cabins where lifelong friendships began, and the summers that helped shape who they became.

Thank you to everyone who attended, volunteered, helped plan, and shared their Camp Jewell stories. Here’s to the next 125 years!

Last night, this incredible group came together at camp for a note-writing and call night to help raise funds so more kids can experience the magic of Camp Jewell this summer. Because of their passion and commitment, we’ve already raised over $200,000 for this year’s camp campaign, in record time!

And we’re not stopping there. As we celebrate 125 summers at Camp Jewell, our goal is simple (and big): get as many kids to camp as possible.

If you haven’t yet, consider making a gift today and help open the door to a life-changing camp experience:
