What to Bring to Camp

DO NOT BRING CELL PHONES or other electronics to Camp. Cell phones, video games and MP3 players distract from the camp experience. A break from technology can offer the opportunity to experience the physical activity, face to face interaction, development of life skills and self-reliance, offered by camping. If there is a need to call home, several adult leaders have cell phones available.

Do not bring fireworks, sheath knives, pellet guns or any other weapons.

Do not bring food to camp. We want to have a clean campsite. Bringing snacks only adds to the clean-up time necessary and attracts animals and bugs. Snacks are available at the trading post.
