What A Camper Learns

Communication

Telephone/FAX/E-Mail

Camp phone number: 715-545-2522 Camp FAX number: 715-545-3737
E-mail: info@campnicolet.com Web site: www.campnicolet.com

The camp office is staffed by our camp secretary. Normal office hours are from 8:30 AM to 5:30 PM.. We would appreciate your attempt to use these hours when you have occasion to call camp, unless it is for an emergency reason. We also have voice mail which is monitored regularly.

Camp also has a dedicated FAX line which is active 24 hrs./day. This is especially useful for communication with our international families. Campers may FAX and their camp store account will be billed accordingly.

You have a direct e-mail link to our office to write messages to your daughter. Please go to our home page and click on the link that says “Send a Note to Your Camper”. These are printed each morning and your daughter will receive it during mail call.

In order to offer the convenience of fax and e-mail, a charge per page of transmission will be billed to your daughter's canteen account.
We still encourage the old fashioned art of letter writing!

Policies Regarding Telephone Use

  • Campers are not called to the phone at any time except for purposes previously cleared by the Director.

  • When a camper has a birthday during camp, she may either receive a call from her parents, or she may place a call to her parents at this time.

  • When a camper's parents are unable to visit during the visitation period, a camper may either receive a call from or place a call to her parents.

  • For any emergency call, please ask to speak to the Camp Director or Head Counselor.
  • Camp Mail

    When sending letters or packages to your daughter using the Postal Service, please address your mail:

    Camper's Name - Cabin Name
    Camp Nicolet, P.O. Box 1359
    Eagle River, WI 54521 (USA)
     
    When Using UPS, Federal Express or DHL:

    Camper's Name - Cabin Name
    Camp Nicolet, 16040 Hwy. 70 East
    Eagle River, WI 54521 (USA)
     

    Mail at camp is picked up and delivered six days per week. Sometimes mail service can be slow and erratic. Because letters are extremely important to campers, we encourage parents and relatives to write as often as possible (rather than fax or e-mail). Also, please write a letter before your daughter leaves home so that it will be waiting for her upon arrival at camp. All campers are encouraged to write home twice each week. It also helps to send her with preaddressed stamped envelopes! We would appreciate knowing if you do not receive a letter from your daughter within a reasonable period of time.

    Policies Regarding Letters and Packages

    Please do not send your daughter food, gum or candy either in letters or packages.

    If you should receive letters that cause you concern as to her adjustment or well being, please advise us immediately. Remember, however, that youngsters will sometimes over-emphasize a situation, so please take this into consideration is assessing your need to contact us.
