Purple is the playground.

Campsites 1-5 are ours. We will need to do assignments after we get registration. Also need to keep people organized when setting up. It can get tight.

Bathrooms are marked on the map.

The waterpark is where the whale is on the map.
Cardboard Regatta Rules
-
YouTube it (not MIT's)
-
Each circle needs to bring their own boat materials: cardboard, paper tape, styrofoam, water based paint/markers/crayons.
-
The materials need to be raw, uncut and unshaped (no pool noodles) until Saturday morning.
-
You will get 3ish hours to build and paint.
-
Boats will be judged based on decoration, crew costumes and ability to carry a dad and daughter a short distance.
Examples of materials
Other Notes
-
Waterpark / water toys are not included in the cost. The water park has a reservation system. Circles should work together to reserve a window(s) that you would want to go. On the water toys, if you ask around I'd bet several in your circle have stuff they can bring.

RVs: RV park adjacent to our camping area. If anyone books something in there, we still need them to pay the registration for the event because the campsite cost is only a small portion of our total event cost.
-
Always open any other ideas for camp activities. Should probably do a pin program activity.
