Can I stay on property over the weekends?

For those out-of-town staff, you may request to stay on the property for the weekends or, more commonly, be invited home with one of our local staff members!

Requests are reviewed on a case-to-case basis, but are commonly granted to those who live more than two hours away or have extenuating circumstances, otherwise you are expected to go home on the weekends.

To request to stay on weekends, please contact Elaine, who will forward the request to the Exective Camp Director.  Minors are not permitted to stay on property on weekends.
