My daughter went to an AWESOME camp for 4 summers up in northern WI called Camp Birchknoll for Girls it was around $7,000 for 8 weeks (after extras like field trips,laundry, canteen $$ etc...) and worth every penny!! She loved it! The people who run the camp are the absolute best! She even loved the food!! lol I cried the first year I brought her up there thinking she would be so homesick and not make any friends (she didnt know a soul going up there at 11 years old) and she loved it so much she went back for years and still talks to many of the friends sh made up there! Most of the girls come from IL but they do have girls from many different states, and even a couple from different countries!

My friend’s family has been going to Camp Glen Arden since it opened. They do offer a camp experience for adult women called “Women of the Wilderness.”
My girls went to Skyland in Clyde, N.C. One reason I chose it was it was a little "funky" - the cabins weren't picture perfect, the Big House (where meals and the smaller campers stay) was a converted 19th century hotel, they swam at a swimming hole - but it's getting modernized, and isn't the same.
Hey - maybe my now-counselor daughter can get a job here in Texas this summer as a counselor . . . hmmmmmmm....

I know quite a few "alumnae" from this camp -- all were counselors and almost all of them were Greek.
