Description of Facilities

Each camp has been designed and constructed with Young Women camp in mind. However, other groups such as family reunions, father/son outings, or youth conferences may use an entire camp or portions of a camp according to their size and requirements. Brief descriptions are listed below.

For detailed descriptions and photos, please see our Facilities Matrix .

Main Pavilion
The covered pavilion includes seating for around 250 on folding chairs, 8' folding banquet tables, a sound system with microphone and inputs for CD or cassette players and computers, a commercial-grade kitchen with a walk-in cooler and freezer, and indoor sleeping accommodations for sixteen persons in bunk beds. (NOTE: The kitchen is not equipped with cooking or serving utensils. Those are the responsibility of the users, along with dish soap and dish cloths. The camp provides cleaning supplies, including rags, sprays, brooms and mops.) Only 16 people may sleep overnight. No tents or "open-air" sleeping areas are allowed to be set up around the pavilion. The large pavilion is often rented along with several campsites and used as the gathering place for large reunions or youth conferences.
 
Restrooms
There are adequate restroom facilities for all campers including flush toilets and sinks, private warm showers and restrooms designed for handicap accessibility. Some campsites have restroom facilities as a part of their pavilion, other campsites share a common restroom building.
 
Amphitheater
Each camp includes a large outdoor amphitheater with bench seating for about 300-400, that can be used for large-group programs and firesides. The amphitheaters have a cement stage area in front, a flag pole, a fire ring with wood pile and electrical outlets. Camp hosts can provide a portable sound system to be used on the stage.
 
Food Preparation Areas
Each campsite is equipped with at least one covered cooking area which contains two propane stoves (3 burners each — propane provided), grill and griddle attachments and sinks with running water for food preparation and washing dishes. A normal home-sized refrigerator/freezer is available in the storage room associated with each cooking area. Most 4-cabin campsites are equipped with two cooking areas. Please bring all utensils and equipment required to cook and serve your food, and to clean up afterwards.
 
Cabin Campsites
The cabins are arranged into "campsites" of two, three or four cabins each. Each cabin has 8 built-in bunk bed platforms, for a total of 16 beds. Thus, a campsite with three cabins will accommodate 48 people. Each platform measures 36" x 84" and does not have a mattress or padding. Campers should bring their own pads and sleeping bags. Each cabin includes a whiteboard, a corkboard, overhead flourescent lights and two electric outlets.
 
Each campsite has a flagpole, a campfire ring with log benches (fire restrictions may apply — check with camp host), a food preparation area, and picnic tables for eating and other activities. Most 2-cabin and 4-cabin campsites also have a medium-sized pavilion. Most 4-cabin campsites come equipped with two food preparation areas, each of which has a sink, two propane stoves, and a refrigerator.

Flexibility

Camp Esther and Camp Lucy Mack Smith are adjacent to each other giving this area the added flexibility of being able to "share" camps. A large group with more than 250 campers might need, for instance, all 5 campsites Camp Esther and 2 campsites from Camp Smith, and could be scheduled along with a smaller group using the remaining 3 campsites from Camp Smith.

Parking
Youth Conferences larger than 40 participants leaving from a common area are encouraged to secure commercial bus transportation. All other groups may arrive in private vehicles. Those coming to camp are strongly encouraged to carpool in order to minimize the number of vehicles.
