ORIENTATION – Please plan 30 minutes, early in your schedule, when all your group can be available for an orientation to be given by a member of the Foundation staff.

TRANSPORTATION
- Yes! You will have to drive in the river to reach your campsite except Wind Song.
- The road through the river has a solid rock bottom and is well marked; the water is only about 4-inches deep.
- Commercial buses will NOT be allowed to drive in the river—so, if you come in commercial buses, you will have to provide shuttle vehicles for campers, luggage, and supplies from the bus-unloading area to your campsite.
- Please pool transportation to minimize the use of vehicles as much as possible. Gasoline is not available at camp.
- A map to your reserved campsite will be included with your reservation packet to help your campers reach the campsite without intruding on the privacy of other sites. Make and distribute copies as needed.
BOUNDARIES – Please plan your activities to respect the privacy of groups in other campsites. Please be sure that your campers do not enter any other campsite or cross any property line fences.
