You will need to make your own arrangements for
refrigeration. Many campers in the past have brought
a mini or dorm-sized refrigerator and set that
up in their cabins. You can also purchase ice
from Camp Brachman.

Your dog is with
you all the time except for meals (the Health Department
has a problem with animals in the lunchroom). In
your cabin, your dog can be in its crate, tethered
to your bed, or if the dogs in your cabin get along,
they can be loose. You work that out with your cabin
mates.

You can do as much
or as little as you want at camp. Activities start

the afternoon. We do have a break midday for lunch
and nap time. Dinner follows shortly after the afternoon
sessions and then group camp activites and bon fires
in the evenings! |

If you know that
your dog is particular about his or her friends,
we would like to know that in advance. We try to
match cabins according to dog size, but that's not
a guarantee they will all like each other; that's
why we recommend you bring a crate for times that
you won't be there to supervise. |

Dogs are on a leash in all areas except certain
designated off-leash areas. You may want to avoid
those areas. We will be offering a special small
dog waterfront time this year to accommodate those
little dogs that would like some playtime in the
water without the worries of the big dogs splashing
them!
We also have a yellow bandana program for those
dogs that need a little extra space. Owners can
request this bandana and have their dog wear it
at camp. This alerts others to give your dog extra
space and caution when approaching.

Most activities can
continue even if it's raining. Camp does have some
sheltered areas that can be used during inclimate
weather, but in case plans need to change, there
are indoor activities for all to enjoy! |
