Dear Camp Families,
We are so glad that you have had the opportunity to join us this summer! Many of you have reached out for information on how to tip staff members who have worked so hard this summer.

It is easy to use, and the money will be sent directly to each staff member you select. Please follow the instructions provided below on how to download the GRAZZEE APP and use the use GRAZZEE website.
