Unplugged Friday

Unplugged Friday

Due to a planned power outage by PG & E, GAC, our campers won't be the only people unplugged here at GAC tomorrow. Our office staff and everyone else here at camp will also be unplugged all day Friday, June 28. We will post photos and news after we get our power back online, but please be patient as we will have some catching up to do! Enjoy your Friday and relax in the knowledge that you do not need to keep refreshing your photo feed. Maybe you can try unplugging a bit, too! :) Happy #unplugged Friday!

Sometimes campers are out of camp at one of our outposts (Shaver or Backpacking) for a few days. They will eventually get it, but not right away. Your camper is not sitting by a computer or phone receiving your email or the e-letter form. They will receive a printed out copy. We're old-fashioned up here! Your camper will need to write the letter and drop it off in the mail slot in order for us to be able to scan and send it back to you. Many years ago we offered a similar service, and parents started contacting us to say they hadn't received anything back from their camper. Know that we do not require campers to respond just because you've sent them an e-letter. This is not something we can track. We will make sure that your camper writes ... Read more
