Clean up on Sunday morning is a pack activity.
Everyone is responsible for removing their own trash from the campground - that means take it home with you! We need to leave the campsite and grounds looking better than when we arrived. We practice Leave No Trace camping.
Leave Only Footprints
Take Only Pictures
Kill only Time
Always Hike with a Buddy!Bring a whistle with you and blow the following signal for help: 3 long blasts - 3 short blasts - 3 long blasts, wait a moment, Listen, then repeat until you hear an answering whistle or bell. Then single blasts every ten seconds and we will find you real fast. Okay ! (Whistles will be available at main dining hall)
Click here for a map to John Beltz Retreat! Park near the big building and unload there. You could bring a small red wagon to help you walk your stuff down to your campsite.
We ask you to not drive your vehicles down to the campsites or on the trails. We are caretakers of the campsite while we are there. We will leave the campsite in better condition than we found it.
