A full outfitters kitchen is provided at camp to craft the dinner and breakfast cuisine. Before you ask, the answer is yes, we have toilet facilities, and no, this isnt a loudly amplified rock show. There is some amplification, but its more of a wilderness acoustic gig with some wonderful local singers and songwriters. This years featured performers are Casey Garland and Elaine Skeffington.
