Friday night camping information
- Participants may spend the night at Camp Falling Rock on Friday night.
- You will not be in the same campsite as Saturday night so you will need to take down your tent before the session begins.
- Do whatever it takes to stay dry. It will be a very long night if you are wet or cold.
- Staying dry (and warm) at night usually means a COMPLETE change of clothing for sleeping.
