What about roommate requests?


The camp welcomes roommate requests and will attempt to accommodate the requests, but does not guarantee them. Rooming assignments are done one week prior to the start of a session. It is recommended that roommates send in their applications at the same time. Please make sure that your camper and his preferred roommate have written each other down on their respective registration forms. Don't wait too long though, as your session may close.
