• Background checks
• CPR and first aid
• Medication training

• Sun, thin air and water

  The ranch lot sits high, and the sun is strong even on a cool morning. Send your camper with sunscreen already on and a hat with a brim. Water is at every station, and we stop for a water break between blocks.

• The creek

  Creek time is wading only, in water shoes, in the shallow stretch below the barn. A counselor stands in the water with each group, anything deeper than the knee is out of bounds, and life jackets hang on the rail for any camper who wants one.

• The ropes course

  The ropes course stays low, with padded landings and a counselor beside every element. Campers wear closed-toe shoes, and the course closes when the ground is wet.

• Storms and smoke

  Afternoon thunderstorms are common in July and August. At the first thunder everyone moves into the barn and stays until it has been quiet for a while. On smoke days we move the whole day indoors and text families before camp starts.

• Sign-in and pickup

  An adult on your list signs your camper in and out at the gate table, and we ask for ID until we know you.

• Allergies, medicine and illness

  Tell us about allergies and medicine at registration, and we ask what we need privately. A camper with a fever stays home, and if a camper feels ill at camp, we call you and a counselor stays with them until you arrive.
