Kid-Friendly Food

Leave the cooking to us! Upham Woods offers a variety of group and kid-friendly, family-style meals served right in the center of the main camp. Lunch and dinner menus include many youth favorites and a nutritious salad bar. Hot, cold, and sack meals are available to best suit your group’s needs. We are well-versed in food allergens and dietary needs and can accommodate many special requests.

Not a youth group?  Not to worry!

A separate catering menu is available for our Conference Center Groups.

With the Upham Woods food service, your group enjoys these benefits:

• Meal preparation, cooking, serving, and clean-up are all done for your group;
• Confidence in knowing that your meals are prepared by food service professionals trained in food allergens and food handling regulations and  certified by the State of Wisconsin ANSI-CFP approved ServSafe food safety program;
• Meal service is billed with the rest of your camp experience.
