What do you think makes Gallagher special? How is it different than other camps?
Gallagher has that comforting moment when you realize that the people around you are having just as much fun as you are! The staff has the ability to make you smile at all times, they not only work there but they are a part of the camp that makes it that much more special.
Was Camp Gallagher different than you expected?
It was smaller in size. Other camps seem to be packed to the brim, but this camp is perfect in size!
Finish this thought: “Camp Gallagher is…”
Calming, with lots of warm sun!
Tell us about one camp experience that sticks out as particularly memorable.
The time we built a makeshift sailboat out of tarps and rope and two boats! And it worked out great! Too bad there was no wind that week :/
