Waldmart Store FAQ

1. Are you affiliated with Walmart? No, we are a wholly independent operation, and we hope they don't mind us making PUN of their name.

2. Which Camp Walden are you? We're the one in MICHIGAN! Not the one in Maine (that's the Parent Trap one), not the one in New York (that's the one with mountains), and not the one in Ontario, Canada, (that's the one where they say "eh!" a lot.) We are located in the beautiful northern tip of the Lower Penninsula (the one shaped like the mitten).

3. How long will it take to get my order? Well, that depends on how big or small your order is and if we have the right size box or need to go to, uh, Walmart to buy one. Probably a couple weeks.

4. What if you're out of my size? Once we are out of a specialty item--especially if it has the year printed on it--it's probably gone for good. However, you can always find basic Walden gear at Brody's in West Bloomfield, Michigan. https://www.brodysonline.com/

5. I ordered an old yearbook and it smells really funky. Yup, that's the way they smell after sitting in the Staff House attic for decades. Sorry--you were warned!

6. Will my order come in a snazzy box with a bow, like Martha Stewart wrapped it? No! Please don't be disappointed with your order comes in a reused box with recycled tissues paper or even crumbled up newspaper. The last thing we want to do is add even more to the landfills with new packaging. The items inside will still be in great shape andthey really don't mind being shipped in old Amazon boxes.

7. What is your return policy? For a detailed account, see Return Policy link in the bottom navigation on each page. Generally speaking, we don't do returns. We're a tiny operation (one and a half people; Liz is the one; Scott is the half). Unless the item is faulty or a chipmunk has nibbled a hole in it, we don't have the personnel to refund and return stuff just because. We can swap out a size, though, if we have it in stock. 

8. Is your camp as good as your store? Because your store is AWESOME! We're biased, of course, but YES. Being at Walden is even better than shopping online, if you can believe it. Walden has been around for more than 60 years, and that's sayin' something. 

9. Where can I find more information about Camp Walden in Michigan? At our Website:  www.campwaldenmi.com. We could have linked our store to our domain name but we couldn't figure out how and don't completely trust the Internet. If you like old-fashion communication, you can call us on the phone, 248-225-1256. We often pick up. ;)
