UPDATE – May 8, 2025:
Here’s a link to last night’s All Camp Zoom where you can hear some of the latest news from camp!
Also, we heard from a donor last night who will match all donations up to $3,000 between now and the weekend to help us purchase two M17 sailboats for our intermediate sailors that we will launch this summer! Please make your gift today!
April 28, 2025: We launched our Spring Campaign with the goal to raise $25,000. Your contributions will go toward enhancing this summer’s activities, equipment, and programming which includes:
- New and improved tripping gear for regular and extended trips
- Refurbishing the “Old Pontoon” to increase activity and packout opportunities
- Our new pennant program to track campers’ skills progression
- And so much more…
As part of the campaign, we are proposing a friendly competition where you will “vote” for your favorite unit (Harbor, Cape, or Point) when you make your donation. We hope this gives folks the opportunity to relive some of their favorite camp memories and connect with whichever season at camp made the greatest impact on them.
We invite you to join us for the following virtual events to connect with camp friends and celebrate your Unit Pride! Each event will be hosted by alums who will share more about what is happening at Clearwater and how your gifts impact camp! All times are Central and you can join using the links below.

Thank you for considering a gift today that will make an important difference in the lives of the girls and young women at Clearwater. You also help fulfill our mission to foster confidence, courage, compassion, and community — four points on Clearwater’s compass — by providing a traditional sleep-away camp experience for girls!
Every single gift makes camp magic and is greatly appreciated.
