Day Camp - 2021

We would like to apologize for the length of time it has taken us to be in touch with many of you about our Day Camp program and the summer ahead. We hope you know and trust that time has been spent looking at every possible aspect and angle of Tawingo's program, procedures, policies, and property as they relate to an ever-evolving pandemic and with a view to preserving what we can of this place for the children who call it home for a time each summer...and especially for this coming summer.

With that in mind, it is with a heavy heart that we have decided, at this time, to not operate the Tawingo Day Camp this summer. To learn more please read our complete letter here.

It is important to note that we may, under certain conditions, still operate. Please review these details in the letter linked below. If you are NEW to Tawingo (not already on our emailing list) and wish to receive more information as it becomes available, please do not hesitate to email us: This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

Tawingo Talkback!

" I continue to be amazed by this camp and their ability to make the best of a situation at all times. My daughter is currently there and the weather has been dreary; however, I have absolutely no doubt that she'll come home at the end of camp telling us that she had the "best time ever" and "can't wait to go back next year". It's just the spirit of Tawingo and we love this camp for it! "
