2025 Menu

We encourage students to pack supplemental snacks for the bus ride!

• Gluten Allergies: The Camp Shamineau kitchen offers gluten-friendly options at every meal. Please note, gluten-friendly meals are prepared in areas that also prepare non-gluten free meals. (For example: A gluten-free pizza will be cooked in the same oven as a non-gluten free pizza.) Gluten-friendly items will be labeled and served in the general buffet line.
  • A limited selection of gluten-free options (individually wrapped products produced by a certified gluten-free company) will also be available at the kitchen service counter. These may include muffins, cookies, and dessert bars.
• Nut Allergies: The kitchen does not serve peanut or tree nut products. However, some products may be manufactured in facilities that also process nuts. In addition, the snack shop sells candy that contains nuts.
• Other Food Allergies: Lactose-free milk will be available at the kitchen service counter. For all other allergies, please contact the kitchen to discuss what options may be available.
• Other Notes: Food storage space is available for guests who wish to bring their own food. Unfortunately, the kitchen may not be able to accommodate all special diets.
