Food Options

Take Your Pick

Even picky eaters will be in food heaven at Pine Cove! We plan the menu for each meal with the age of our youth campers in mind, offering delicious food like beef tacos and honey butter chicken biscuits. Looking for healthy alternatives? All youth camps offer yogurt and oatmeal at breakfast, an extensive salad bar (including tasty choices like hummus!) at lunch and dinner, and fruit at every meal.

“He loved all of the food (this says a lot because my son is a picky eater). But he loved the system you had of bringing everything to the table! Love it!”

Food Allergies

Extra Precautions

Before each week of camp, the Director of Food Services in each of our regions receives a report detailing the names and requirements for every camper with a food allergy. Then our cooks take great care preparing meals for those with allergies in a separate section of the kitchen with clean utensils to prevent cross-contamination.
