Other Helpful Information
• Check-in will take place on February 7 between 4:00 – 4:30 PM. Please do not arrive earlier than 4:00 PM. Buses are scheduled to leave at 5:00 PM. Check-in will take place in the lobby and students will hang out in the Grove until we leave. Please eat before coming or pack a dinner for the bus. Buses should return from camp, on the 9th, at church around 2:00 PM and drop off by the Grove.
• Sky Ranch’s Food Service team is very willing to work with your child’s dietary needs. For example, they have accommodated food for students who are/have gluten-free, dairy-free, and more. During the registration process, please indicate all dietary needs your student has. If you have any further questions regarding food at camp, please email highschool@missionhills.org.
• Medication: If your child will be taking any medication over the weekend, they will need to bring them in the original bottle in a ziploc bag with their name on it for our nurse. You will turn all medication in (even non-prescription medications) to our nurse during check-in and fill out an instruction form. Medications will be distributed during meals and at night. There will be reminders given to students to get their medications and we will do our best to get your student their medication but ultimately it is the responsibility of the student to come to the nurse. Please remember to pick up your medication after camp.
• If you need to get in touch with us during Winter Camp, please contact our High School Pastor, Stephen Boyer (303.362.3877 or sboyer@missionhills.org). Cell phone reception is unreliable, but the camp does have WiFi for staff, so email will also be checked regularly. We will do our best to respond as soon as possible.
