Summer Prep: Checkin + Checkout
Opening Day / Check-in
Every session begins on a Sunday at the entrance to camp. The designated time for check-in is between 2:30 and 4:00pm. The gates will not be opened prior to 2:30pm.
There will be a long car line when you arrive.
Staff will come through the car line to retrieve any mail you would like to drop off for your camper.
At the front, you will be marked on the roster and able to review your cabin assignment.
You will then receive a card that indicates your cabin area color.
Proceed through the gates and follow signs and staff to your cabin area.
Park at the cabin area and get out of your car but can not leave the vicinity of your car.
Campers will receive their health check at the car and if everything is clear staff will accompany them to the cabin.
If you would like a slower check in process, staff will guide you where you can park to walk to the cabin. You will take your luggage with you and then may help your camper move in.
Please keep your cabin card for check out.
If your camper has medication you will be guided to a parking area where you may get out to drop off medication with the nurses (MUST be in original labeled container).
There is a public restroom for parents at the adventure center which is at the END of check in before you depart camp.
Early or late check-in will not be allowed. Arriving during the designated check in time will be essential in helping your camper have a smooth transition into the camp routine.
Closing Day / Check-out
Every session ends on a Saturday at 9:00am and check out will begin at the camp entrance.
There will be a long car line when you arrive.
At the front of the line staff will make sure you have the cabin card from check in or provide you with a new one.
You will drive to that cabin area for pick up and you may get out of your vehicle.
A staff member will call for your camper and bring them and their luggage to your car.
You may then drive to pick up any medication or use the restroom at the adventure center.
Once your camper is checked out and in your supervision you may then move your car to a parking area where you can then come in to our camp store or walk around property for a short time.
Early or late check out on Saturdays will not be allowed
