Camp Strawderman is open to girls from 6 to 17 years of age. Campers are placed in cabin groups according to age and grade level. Cabins accommodate from four to twelve campers.

The rising bell rings at 7:00 A.M. and breakfast is at 7:30 A.M. (See Typical Daily Schedule.) After breakfast, dishes are done and cabin duties are attended to. The cabins are put in order for the daily inspection. Campers do much of their own work. Each day's duties rotate among the 15 cabins. Even the younger cabins have their duties. Campers and counselors work together and learn how to share responsibilities.

Morning activities take place between nine and twelve. Campers take classes in riding, swimming, tennis, archery, arts and crafts, tumbling and dance, and choir.

At twelve-thirty the lunch bell rings and after lunch campers go to the store and to their cabins for a quiet rest hour.

In the afternoon, campers go to recreational activities chosen at breakfast. A main attraction is DIP, a well-supervised free swim. Other activities include jumping, trail rides, archery and tennis, arts and crafts, and Indian lore.

The bell for dinner rings at five-thirty. Meals at Strawderman are a time for cabins to be together and often there is singing as one cabin and then another competes in song battles. Supper hikes take place every Thursday and Sunday.

After dinner is a time for relaxation and recreation. The popular game Indians is played during these cool hours and there is also free time for the campers to talk, to take showers, to read books, or to write letters.

A whistle blows for Campfire at eight o'clock and everyone gathers in the Rec Hall to sing the old songs and to enjoy a play or show put on by one of the cabins. Popular programs which may be attended by parents and guests are Showboat, Shakespeare, the Tumbling and Dance Show and the Choir Program. (See Special Events.)

After the program, campers and counselors join hands in a good-night circle and sing the songs for the end of the day. Then they return to their cabins to prepare for bed and for the next day. Taps is blown on a bugle at 9:30, lights are turned out in all cabins, and campers say good-night.
