Check-in for coaches and players will be on Tuesday, July 6 , from 12 noon through 3:00 pm. Note: All camp staff will meet at 3 p.m. the first day of camp in camp headquarters.
Prior to camp, each camper should complete a Health Form. This form can be printed here and mailed with your registration form/check, or turned-in at registration.
At check-in each camper will receive several important items:
- Room assignment and key.
- Schedule of camp activities.
- Camp notebook
NOTE: All campers must leave a $50 deposit for dorm keys. The deposit will be refunded when keys are returned. Any key returned late will be considered lost and the camper will forfeit the deposit.
We’ve yet to finalize exactly what dorm buildings we’ll be using on campus, but be prepared for typical college dorm life, including hall baths. You will need to bring your own:
- sheets (single beds only)
- pillow and pillow covering
- towels and toiletry items
- an alarm device of some sort
- an umbrella
- writing instruments (including highlighters)
- notebook paper or spiral notebook
Dress is casual at camp functions. Shorts are the preferred dress as it is generally warm in July. Please be sure that your attire is appropriate.
The dorms are supervised at night by two staff members, and an ACE director is on supervisory duty also. Please be cooperative and respectful.
