Q & A

How do the Activities work?  Every morning well put out lists of the days activities and when they're scheduled to occur.  You can sign up for any or all that you wish for.  If something is not a popular choice - we'll switch it for something that is. 

Do we have to stay on the campus?  - Absolutely no.  Your welcome at any point to run into town for a movie, meal, soda, or different family adventure of your choice.

Do Parents and kids need to be doing the same stuff? - Only if they want to

What's the food like?  We serve something cooked for every meal. Along with that, at breakfast we have cereal, and fruit; and Lunch & Dinner a salad bar. 

How rustic are we talking?  Afraid we're not only 4 star, but, say...4 million.  That said, we're pretty rustic.  Platform tents are 10 X 12 feet with 2 bunks / 4 beds in each.  Electricity only in the dinning hall, nature center, and shower house.  Sprint cell phones work, Verizon and Cingular - some places, others ???  Internet? - ah, no.
