  1. Tents may be setup anywhere you would like up to the top of the amphitheater hill but not within the bowl or fields (so we don’t damage our irrigation system).
  2. You may bring your car to the area where you want to set-up (on inner road—go slow and watch for pedestrians), however, it must be parked in the parking lot once unloaded-cannot be kept while setting up. You may also bring your car to pick-up your items in the morning.
  3. Children must be supervised at all times. Children can’t be left alone near beach, campfire, and are not permitted to play on the dock. Unsupervised children at campfire or beach will be sent back to their parents.
  4. We will begin the campfire at approximately 6:00 p.m. until 9:30 p.m.
  5. If you have a pet, please be sure it is with you and on a leash. Doggie clean-up bags are available at the inner road and dogs are not permitted on the beach.
  6. The bathrooms will remain open throughout the event.
  7. We do ask that quiet time begin at 9:30 p.m. so our younger and experienced campers can get a good night's sleep.
  8. Swim at your own risk.  The pond is closed for the season. No boating unless guard is on duty (Sat. AM).
