Tips/Advice

• NEVER swing your lanyard or bad things will happen to you

• Food
  • Bring plenty of snacks and money to buy snacks because the food has a reputation was being disgusting and literally sickening
  • Like most sites, peanut based foods are rare in the dining hall
  • Dining hall is composed of six main food areas (main dishes, pizza/nacho/taco/etc bar, salad/sandwich bar, desserts, and ice cream/cereal nook)
  • Clean up all tables or ice cream will be taken away
  • If you go to The Coop and try to get a F'real, the milkshake will melt if you leave it out of the freezer for too long and it will jam the machine.

• Don't talk to strangers, especially kids at the other camps
