Friday registration is for BFFD and Journey Camp. You will receive BFFD t-shirts to wear on Saturday. Snacks will be available at the Canteen during Free Time for a charge. Please do not brink snacks or drinks. The camp does not allow snacks/drinks to be brought onto the property without a clean-up fee. Call Barbara Owens at 800-558-2090, extension 7905.

After receipt of your registration forms you will be sent a letter listing what to bring and what not to bring. This is a very common problem for kids coming to camp. If a child wets their sleeping bag they should tell the counselor. If they don't we usually figure out there is a wet bag in the cabin. During the day the bag is removed by staff, washed/dried and returned to the bunk like nothing ever happened.

What Santa have you met in this world that HASN'T given you anything? Give gifts such as candy, toys, trinkets, kisses, spankings, cigarettes whatever to passerby's and other Santas! This is the perfect chance to liberate mutant toys from the bottoms of toy chests and bargain bins everywhere!

You will need to bring one set of 5 - 8 lb. hand weights and any type of exercise mat. You will also want to bring water to keep yourself hydrated during camp. Optional items are a towel to dry off with and gloves or mittens in the winter. Dress in a layered fashion...even if it is chilly, you will get warm very fast! Make sure you have a good pair of RUNNING sneakers.

A thorough 'what to pack" list is in the camp handbook mailed to each registered camper. Do remember to label everything with your camper's name! Also, even in the summer months, there are cool mornings and evenings so do pack some long pants and a sweatshirt or fleece top. We ask that your camper not bring anything irreplaceable. Cellphones, walkmans, gameboys and the like are not permitted at camp. This type of entertainment discourages social interaction and excludes others.

We have so many things to do here, including swimming, horseback riding, climbing wall, arts & crafts, and much, much more. For a more complete list, take another look at our Activities page – right here on the website.

Drink and food from the outside, including alcoholic beverages, are not allowed on the premises. However, you can purchase a variety of snacks and beverages from vendors on site.
