The terrain of camp is made up primarily of rock/uneven hiking trails. There are steep and dusty hills that are difficult to navigate without the proper footgear; we strongly suggest sturdy shoes; no flip-flops please. Campers spend most of their days outside so sun-protection and hydration is a must! Please label everything with your camper’s first & last name.
The camp store does not sell sweatshirts or jackets; please plan to pack warm clothing for your camper in preparation for inclement weather.
If you're having trouble obtaining any of the items on the packing list, please don't hesitate to call our office for assistance. Our staff will do everything we can to help you get ready for camp!
