Does your unit want to use the camp property for the day to hike and explore? Units can use the camp as a basecamp for their day activity. Members of the unit must check in and out with the camp ranger and are limited to usage of the parking area and bathrooms. Usage of the open fields must be coordinated ahead of time.
