Visitors Night

Thursday of each week is Visitor’s Night. Family and friends can visit your unit at camp. After dinner everyone is invited to a special flag ceremony held at our Court of Eagles, and then we all proceed down to the Council Ring to enjoy our amazing campfire program. The evening is completed with a memorable Call Out Ceremony conducted by our Order of the Arrow. Be sure to check out the Trading Post while you are here as well!

Visitors are invited to bring dinner for the unit. (Dinner is not served in the Dining Hall on Visitor’s Night!) Visitors are able to enter camp after 5:30 PM.

Out-of-Council Units that will not have visitors traveling to join them for Visitor’s Night have a few options for dinner:
