This is a fitness camp (i.e., swimming, kayaking, yoga, obstacle course) with frequent activity, and an athlete’s refusal to participate in activities may result in not being accepted for future camps.

Camp selections are made through a lottery system and the timing of when I complete this application has no affect on that process.

Campers must be able to handle hygiene needs with minimal or no support

Must have competed in and finished at least one of the last Fall, Winter, Spring or Summer seasons.
