Please Note!
- A sack lunch should be brought on Monday
- Please help you child pack their own gear and roll their sleeping bag so they will be able to do it at the end of camp.
- If your child has a locking suitcase, you may want to have an adult keep an extra key.
- Please label your child's belongings.
- Your child will NOT need any money at camp.
- A minimum of three pair of long pants are required for protection against the evening cold, stinging nettle, etc. Students may wear modest shorts, however, they are not recommended because of stinging nettle along the trails and cool evenings.
- We discourage children from bringing a lot of candy. Squirrels like it too and often eat through suitcases. Candy is best kept in a metal container. Please do not bring glass containers.
- In order for your child to get the full benefit of the experience we strongly encourage you to plan the week so that they may stay Monday through Friday if at all possible. The entrance gate is 1 1/2 miles from camp and is kept locked at all times for security reasons. We ask for your cooperation with this concern. However, if a child must come back to Provo during the week, we will help you work it out.
- A food and supply truck leaves from the Timpview High School kitchen at 7:30 am and 2:30 pm daily. Messages or "left-behind" items may be sent to camp on that truck.
