Please send appropriate clothing with your child, taking into consideration the weather forecast and camp activities.
All campers will be given the option (weather dependent) to go on an overnight camping trip at our onsite canyon campsites. Campers are outfitted with framed backpacks, sleeping pads, and backpacking tarp shelters.
*Two-Week Campers—please remember to bring enough clothes to last 13 days.
**CITs attending more than two weeks will have the opportunity to wash clothing after their first two weeks at camp.
For ideas on where to find appropriate items, or with any questions, please contact us at 303.647.2313 or at [email protected].
Camp is a natural setting to unplug from electronics and to get more in touch with people. The items that are listed below (or other items deemed dangerous or inappropriate) will be confiscated until the end of the session.
*Canned repellent is not allowed at camp. Insect repellent must be in the form of lotion, wipes, or non-aerosol bottles. Aerosol cans become a safety hazard around other children and around the campfire.
