The best way to prepare for camp is to read your handbook. You can view the handbook online as an interactive PDF or you can download and print out a PDF version. There is information in this handbook that pertains to both parents and campers, so we encourage everyone to take the time to read it.

The 2019 handbook is not yet available. The link below is for the 2018 handbook and should be used for reference purposes only. The 2019 handbook will be available in the spring.
