Dining
As our former director Jane always said, “We are a family, so we eat together.” Tapawingo’s size is intentional for many reasons, but particularly because it allows every camper to comfortably sit in the Dining Hall together for meals. We provide delicious family-style meals and our campers rotate tables every few days to allow them to get to know everyone in the Tapawingo community. In the Tap Dining Hall, there are table games, trivia and a song for everything!
- We provide balanced meals with alternative options whether that be for preference or for allergies or health decisions.
- In addition to the meal at breakfast there is yogurt, cereal and mounds of fresh berries. At lunch and dinner there is an extensive salad bar.
- We offer meals that are vegetarian, vegan, dairy free and gluten free. We are a nut free facility.
Facilities
Tapawingo has been dedicated to preserving the environment since 1919. We are focused on reducing our carbon footprint and maintaining the 200 acres in our care for generations to come. Tap girls in 2119 will enjoy the same clean water of Keyes Pond as well as miles of trails and campsites.
