- bedding (pillow, sleeping bag or set of twin sheets and blanket)
- shower, toiletry items, and towel (sometimes bringing 2 towels is a good idea – beach towel and shower towel)
- money (for 42 Coffee, The Sweet Tree, Paintball, The Lake Shore Trading Post, Grill, Sundaes for a Buck, Rifle Range, and special offerings.)
- Bible
- note-taking items
- * Please do not bring any type of cellphone, smart watch, or etc. Let’s get out of our routine for just 5 days!

Our Director may interact closely with a group sponsor in special case situations, particularly involving new contact campers in clear need of salvation.
Colder Weather
Wisconsin fall, winter, and spring can get cold. All the buildings at camp are well-heated, but you may wish to bring a sweater or sweatshirt to layer up.
In the winter, when outdoor snow sports like tubing, tobogganing, and ice-skating are available, you will also want to have some of the following cold weather items:
- snow pants
- hats
- gloves
- boots
