middle school camp details


We are leaving Sunday, July 8 from the Farmers Branch Campus at 1pm.

There will not be a middle school gathering at the Vista Ridge Campus on Sunday, July 8, in order to give you plenty of time to go to 9am Worship, grab a bite to eat and drop off your camper in time to leave at 1pm.  
We will be staying at Tanglewood Christian Camp near Lexington, Texas.  Tanglewood is about 3 hours away and we will traveling in The Branch's Shuttles.

We will return from Tanglewood on Friday, July 13, at 4pm. 

It is fine to send a phone/ipod/game system with your child for the trip to and from camp.  All electronics will be taken up while we are at camp.

Tanglewood has their own set of rules and code of conduct.  These also help you pack.  Go here and scroll to the bottom to read that document.

We will be outside a lot during the week.  Send plenty of modest clothes that you don't mind getting messy.  Flip flops are great for the showers but not for walking around camp.  Please send closed-toes shoes with at least a strap on the back.  
Swimsuits need to be one-piece (tankinis are okay too).  

We will be sleeping on bunk beds--sheets, pillow and a blanket are needed.

Send a bag for dirty clothes, soap and toiletries, Bible, journal, pen or pencil, a towel, and any needed medication (which will be given to the camp nurse).
The money you paid for camp has taken care of everything.  No extra money is needed.
