Where are my campers going?
The week's locations will be available during the camp week and will be posted every day at your camper's group. Additionally, you can reference our 'Where is my camper?' binder at our front-of-camp table any day of the week. 

Why not tell me now?
We permit with many land managers throughout the region and while things are finalizing for the camp season, we make small adjustments throughout the summer to account for environmental changes, trail closures, or land manager cancellations. We want to give you information that is accurate for your camper and that's best presented at camp. If you have questions about recreation areas frequently used with this location, please call Customer Support at 720-249-2412.
