A little planning makes room for more.

Allow time to get between the lakes, cabins and meeting spaces. A campus map helps group leaders choose a meeting point and keep everyone oriented.

Youth under eighteen must be accompanied by a chaperone. At least one adult should be with each ten youth on the grounds, and an adult must stay in each lodging room or cabin used by youth. The lakes close at dark; other recreation closes at 11:00 p.m.
