If you’ve ever been to summer camp , you probably have some pretty amazing memories. Adventures of living in the woods with some of your best friends, swimming, hiking and maybe sailing . Ghost stories around campfires, gooey-smores and lots of silly songs, that most of us can still remember all seven verses! Simply put, summer camp is the perfect summer slice of good-old-fashioned fun!
​

While your campers get acclimated to their woodsy environment, they LOVE getting mail and packages. It’s a nice surprise and good way for them to feel connected to home that they might be missing. Sip and Ship knows the best ways to get mail and packages handled with care and to your camper in record time. We also have a few items in our shops that you can include in your care package that are practical and just plain fun! After all, a happy camper is the best camper.

We hope you are enjoying your summer - adventure on!
