1. What if we cannot check in by 4:15 PM on Sunday?
No problem. We are available in the lobby for check in until about 1:00
A.M. on Monday morning. Sunday's activities are designed to give the
coaches a chance to evaluate the campers. A 1-on-1 tournament is started
on Sunday, and most coaches are able to play a late arrival into the
tournament before it is over.

2. Can I have two roommates?
We can put three campers in a room very comfortably. On request
we have put four in a room, however, we prefer not to do that.

3. What if I have to miss an evening session for a ball game?
No problem. Evenings are for league games and all teams have a
sub. The adult (parent) coming to pick you up will have to check in at
the dorm first, though, because no coach will allow a camper to leave a
gym without notification from the site director or dorm director.

4. What should I bring?
Lots of: socks, shorts, light T-shirts, towels, bedding,
toiletries. Many bring a radio/clock radio, but no alarm is
necessary--we'll get you up! A cell phone is a great advantage!!

5. Are there snacks available? .
A snack machine is available. Pizza is available for a late night
snack. Pop is available. Promotional shirts are available.

6. What bedding do I need?
You should bring a top and a bottom sheet, a light blanket, and pillows. The rooms are air-conditioned!!
Each room has its own thermostat.

7. When can the parents pick up the campers?
Unless pre-arranged, all campers are dismissed after the awards
assembly which is held at
three o-clock on Thursday. The dorm is not
open between 3:00 and the close of the ceremony on Thursdays. This
is for the security of campers belongings. If you have to check
out prior to the end of the awards assembly, arrange this in advance
with dorm staff.

8. May parents watch their child's activities?
Absolutely!!! Many come for evening games, and each year a few
will stay in town a day or two and watch many day-time activities.

Is it
possible to be a day-camper and still eat camp meals?
Yes! Meals may be purchased in advance. The cost varies. Lunch
costs less than supper. Meal prices will be posted in the lobby when you
register and you may pay for them then.

If I enroll
late, can I still request a specific roommate?
It is possible, but within about four or five days of camp we
have a hard time
juggling the dorm assignments. We occasionally try, though.
It is best to give us
at least a 7 to 10 days notice.

11. Where are the activities located?
General sessions are at the KWU gym. All Star games are on campus
and in nearby gyms with room for spectators. Meals are on campus in the
air conditioned, newly re-modeled dining hall. The camp swim is at
the municipal pool, which we rent so we're the only ones in it. Parents
will be directed by the dorm staff, to wherever they need to be to watch any activity,
during any session they wish too see.

12. What if I just had a birthday, and now I'm a "year" older
than my buddies?
We can place you where you want to be!! We do occasionally
move a camper "up" to be challenged, but only with that campers consent.
