Ryde Lake was formed in 1952 to provide all the benefits of a traditional camp setting, and it’s been happily doing that ever since. The sunsets are as important as the leadership training—the environment has been developed as one in which girls can step away from the stresses and demands of their daily lives and, for a period of time, live within a different set of priorities. That's something perhaps even more beneficial to girls today than it was all those years ago when the camp program was first created. It’s a place where they can be present to nature, and present to one another, and relax into a slower, more deliberate pace of life. The staff-to-camper ratio is low, and the staff return rate is very high, both things that suggest the quality of the experience and the environment.

Misty morning jumps into freezing cold water,
Boisterious sing-a-longs led by Otter,
Scrumptious food that warms you inside,
There are the things I love about Ryde.
Morning Watch in our cozy sweats,
Sitting on the dock making friendship bracelets,
Haunting loon calls on a deep starry night,
These are the things I love about Ryde.
Connecting with nature and those we hold dear,
Rekindling friendships year after year,
Each girl walks with God by her side,
These are the things I love about Ryde.
Sunrise on baldy, the docks by candlelight,
All of the memories I hold onto tight,
Community, acceptance, laughter, light,
These are the things I love about Ryde.
