Creek Camps 2012 are approaching

Congratulations!!


No, you probably won't get a phone call... but...

Yes, registration packets are starting to head out to selected Creek Campers for this summer.  If you applied... you might receive one!  If you haven't applied... what are you waiting for??  The online application is simple to complete.

If you receive a registration packet, please complete all the forms and return them to us as soon as possible.  If you are unable to attend Creek Camp, please let us know so that we may offer the spot to someone on the waiting list.

Campers... begin to gather things you'll need for camp... borrow XLong twin sheets from your college brother/sister/friend (they won't need them over the summer so get them before they're packed away!) and be on the lookout for a good sturdy pair of water shoes/sandals (sales are the way to go!).  These (===>) aren't the only type of shoes that you can wear in the creek... but they're an example of the type of shoes that hold on to your feet, give you support, and work well in the creek.  No need to buy new shoes, though... old sneakers will work, although it can be a challenge to put them on again when they're wet.

If you do buy new shoes, wear them around the house, to wash the car, power wash the deck, take the dog for a walk, anything to get used to them so you avoid getting big blisters at camp.

We have so many fun and exciting things planned!!!  The college students are moving out of their rooms and we are looking forward to welcoming you to Creek Camp and Allegheny College!
