Packing List

Thank you for registering for Called to Serve. We are excited to see you in November! The schedule is below. 

Packing List:

● close-toed shoes (there’s a lot of walking–and a lot of the recreation options are outdoors)
● flashlight
● Bible
● layers for various weather
● twin sized bedding, including pillows or a sleeping bag and pillow
● toiletries including bath towels
● spending money (cash) for concessions/merch. The concession stand takes only cash. 
● refillable water bottle. 
● Optional: shower shoes
● FYI: regarding phones and other technology, we leave it to the discretion of the church leader or local church policy to determine use during free time. During worship, leadership tracks, and other scheduled activities, no phone use is permitted (we ask adults to model this practice) except in exceptional cases (medical necessity, to limit overstimulation, etc). FYI the cell signal at the camp is very weak. 

Permission Forms:

Please note that all youth attending the retreat are required to have a permission form completed and signed by a legal guardian. Youth Leaders should be prepared to turn in their group’s forms at the time of check-in. You can find the permission form here.
