Regional Mini Camp

Join us for the
2025 Regional Mini-Camp

We are excited to offer the Regional Mini-Camp to the JBers in the Mid-Atlantic and New England chapters at Refreshing Mountain in Stevens, PA.
As an organization dedicated to inclusivity, CISV Brandywine Valley welcomes youth with all experiences and backgrounds.

Check in is on Friday, April 25^th, from 6:30 to 7:15 pm. Camp ends on Sunday morning, April 27^th at 11:00 am.
Refreshing Mountain is located west of Philadelphia and north of Lancaster.  Click here for a Google map of the location.

Help make RMC possible by being a chaperone! CISV rules require one chaperone for every eight youth. Chaperoning is a very low-key way for adults to see what the kids actually do at CISV (and it’s super easy, because the JB board plans all the activities). Chaperones must be over 21 and have background checks on file with their chapter.

Chaperone shifts are as follows:
Friday, 6:30 pm – Saturday, 2:30 pm (Saturday breakfast & lunch included)
and/or Saturday, 2:00 pm – Sunday, 11:00 am (Saturday dinner & Sunday breakfast included)
Chaperones are FREE! and encouraged to come and watch their child learn about CISV.
Click here for the chaperone registration link.

Registration Fee: $199.   The deadline to register and complete payment at this price is April 10th.  This fee covers 2 nights of lodging, 4 meals (Saturday breakfast through Sunday breakfast), and a camp t-shirt!!
The registration fee from April 11th through April 21st is $215.  We cannot guarantee a t-shirt for registrations made during this time.
