Our Mission
To foster lifelong connection, honor our shared traditions from Camp Glen Arden, and sustain the legacies of our directors, Mary Kellogg Bell and Casey Thurman, by offering opportunities for alumni to gather and foster the camp experience through community partnerships that promote outdoor education, stewardship of our environment and communities, and actively living the values Camp Glen Arden instilled us.
Who We Are
We are a collective group of alumni, family, and friends of Camp Glen Arden who want to connect with one another and give back to Glen Arden in tangible and meaningful ways.
We believe one of Glen Arden’s most valuable resources is you, our alumnae – but notice the i in our name. We are purposefully using alumni to represent the generations of girls and women as well as the men, fathers, brothers, sons, and spouses who have long been a part of Camp Glen Arden’s history.
What We Do
We have created opportunities for our alumni to give back to our Glen Arden mountain home, where you perhaps had some of the most formative and memorable experiences of your childhood.
To that end, we have established a Camp Glen Arden Campership Fund, in honor of Mary Kellogg Bell and Casey Thurman, a donor advised fund that supports tuition for local campers to attend Glen Arden who otherwise not have the opportunity to attend. We would like to give future generations the chance to experience summers at Camp Glen Arden and benefit from the many gifts camp has given us. We sponsor an annual week of community service and stewardship to honor the values of kindness, giving, and love of nature that our directors engendered and inspired in us.
