A Note from Your Camp Director

Dear Parents,

We hope you find this newsletter helpful, as it will give you in detail what lies ahead for the next week. Teen Camp is located at Main Beach, 300 Lakeshore Dr., Crystal Lake. Drop-off for campers is between 8:30-8:50 am and pick up at 3:30 pm. Drop off will always be at the boat launch or in the current senior camp lane by the flower pot close to the street light in the beach parking lot when seniors campers are not at the beach. The pickup location will be listed under each day below. When you drop off/pick up you will stay in your car. A counselor will come up to you to sign in/out your camper. Campers will not be able to attend camp if they are exhibiting any symptoms of illness. Supplies needed for each day are a bathing suit, towel, sunscreen, reusable water bottle, and a peanut free lunch or money to buy one from the concession stand. A completely disposable lunch may be needed on some trips.
