Camp is coming up QUICK, and we know everyone is getting excited! β˜€οΈπŸ•οΈ

As a helpful reminder, we wanted to share a few items we ask campers to please leave at home when joining us for camp this summer.

One of the best parts about camp is getting the chance to unplug, connect with others, and fully enjoy being present in the moment. Because of this, electronics and personal devices are not allowed during camp programs. We kindly ask that campers leave cell phones, tablets, gaming devices, and similar electronics at home. This helps eliminate distractions and also reduces the chance of items getting lost, stolen, or damaged while at camp.

The only exception to this policy is for campers who may require a phone for documented medical purposes.

We also ask that campers leave trading cards and other valuable personal collections at home as well β€” we would hate for anyone to lose something special during all the camp fun!

If you have any questions about what to bring (or what not to bring!), please feel free to reach out to our team. We are always happy to help as everyone gets ready for an amazing camp season ahead! πŸ’š
