CAMPING INFORMATION

 

CAMPSITE: We will be camping at the Tensaw 1 & 2 Group Campsites (1) on map below. There is running water and 3 large picnic tables at each group campsite. Approximately 8 families will be at each group campsite. 
 

FOOD & WATER: Each family will be responsible for their own food/drinks. There is a spigot with potable water. Be sure to secure your food when not in use so that wild animals and hungry children don't get into it...

BATHROOMS: There are two bathrooms located at the campsite. There are NOT showers. 

PARKING: There is limited parking at the group campsite. To keep it from looking like we're camping in a parking lot, please park in the designated parking areas. For those who are camping, you can pull your car in to unload, then take it to the parking lot.

ACTIVITIES: We will have some arts & crafts activities for everyone. No activities other than the boat ride and program are pre-planned. Enjoy the spontaneity of the outdoors!

MUSIC: Calling all musicians! We will have some sing-along songbooks with chords for the musicians among us. Plan to sing around the campfire each evening! 

PETS: Unfortunately, we are not allowed to bring our pets to the campout.
