Family Camp Handbook

• Age groups are the only time during the week when staff are responsible for your kids! Outside of age groups we ask that you keep an eye on your kids as they roam camp. 
• The majority of the activities are drop in and do not require sign-ups. Examples of activities that will require sign-ups are Saunas, massages, and certain art classes. These all can be signed up for upon arrival at camp. 
• The schedule is completely up to you! If you want to pick and choose, go to all the programs, or simply do your own thing we leave that up to you and encourage you to find what works for you! 
• We have a packing list that is very helpful when considering what to bring with you to Camp! We do want to mention that if you are staying at Camp du Nord you will need to bring all your linens and if you are staying at Camp Northern Lights you will be provided with bed sheets but will need to bring pillows and all other top blankets.
