Family Traditions and the New Sailing Center

Since Camp Fuller’s founding in 1887, family traditions have been at the heart of Camp’s culture. Over the past 134 years, countless families and their members have attended Fuller to enjoy its unique salt water camping experience and to grow mind, body and spirit. First-born children would venture to Fuller, adjust to living away from their families, and quickly become passionate about their new “Fuller family” and all it had to offer. Their younger siblings would often follow in their footsteps. In many cases, campers evolved into the next generation of Fuller counselors and leaders, passionately influencing the lives of their campers as they had been influenced before them. Fuller has been a “family affair” for many.
