Dietary Needs

Camp Thunderbird's kitchen can accomodate most dietary needs and allergies. At any given time our kitchen typically prepares, in addition to our regular menu, vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free menus. We do not use nut products in our kitchen. If your camper has a dietary need or allergy please indicate this on their registration in the section provided. If you have any questions or concerns about your camper's diet we would love to hear from you.

A typical day of food in the dining hall...

Cabin groups sit at a round table together and eat family style. Food is served in large serving dishes and campers control what goes on their plate (and in meals like sandwiches, what fillings they use). Counselors monitor what campers are eating to ensure they are getting the right amount of food.

Here are a few examples of food that is served in the dining hall on a regular basis:
