Our camp week snack menu can include foods like sunflower seed butter wraps, salad and taco bars, make-your-own trail mix and parfaits, and plenty of grab-and-go fruits and nuts.

Seconds of catered meals will be offered as available, but extra food will always be on hand to ensure all campers are fully nourished. We do our best to order enough food to fuel our campers while being mindful to avoid waste. 

Note: We do our best to provide a wide variety of food items to meet the needs of most children, however, we understand that every child is unique and may not eat everything we serve. We always welcome parents to pack and send optional snacks or meal items that they will enjoy! Be sure to send all refrigerated items in a cooler bag (labeled with your child’s name!) as we will not have access to a refrigerator.

Food Allergies

We take food allergies very seriously at Camp4Real. In addition to offering a variety of healthy food options for our campers, we will also have alternate food items on hand should your child be allergic to any regularly planned meals and snacks offered during the day. If you have information to share regarding your child’s allergy that can help us to better accommodate your needs we encourage you to reach out to us at Camp4Real@gmail.com.
