Each student will complete a card with the names of three friends that he/she would like to bunk with at camp. This will be completed during science class. Each student is guaranteed one friend from the list, however; we try to accommodate as many friends as possible. Cabins will be announced the morning of Nov. 2 before we leave for camp. Chaperone children will be in a cabin with their parents unless they are the opposite gender. For instance, the mom of a boy will be in charge of a cabin of girls, but her cabin with be grouped with her son during the day. Monday, Nov. 2 Make sure your luggage is labeled with your first and last name. This should be a large label, such as a strip of tape. Students should report to the white top (community room if weather is inclement) by 7:45 AM with your luggage and backpack. As students enter, they will drop their luggage off at their cabin. Be sure to get a cabin label from your chaperone. Students will then report to the gym (with their backpack) until a 5th grade teacher picks them up. When the bell rings, all parents will be asked to leave except for chaperones. We will load busses beginning at 8:20 and leave at 8:30.
