2026 Wish List
Each year, alongside our Annual Appeal letter, we share a simple Wish List with concrete ways to support daily Camp life. The items below, from life vests at the Dock and pottery glazes in the Craft Courts to saddle pads in the Barn and bikes for staff, reflect approximate 2026 costs and the real tools campers use every day.
Whether you choose a specific item or make a general gift, your support helps cover the portion of Camp’s annual costs that tuition does not and keeps the Four Winds Spirit strong for future summers.
