All Youth, when you arrive at camp:

1. Check-in at the Registration Office.
2. Check-in at the Youth Office to have parent sign registration form.
3. Attend all youth services and participate in activities.

There is no youth program fee.
The Camp Board increased lot fees that made it possible to remove daily program fees for youth. We felt the program fee was a potential road block for some and want all youth to be at Brown City Camp. We also strongly encourage your local churches to sponsor the cost of staying in the dorms & meals. Many local Missionary Churches have scholarships, please check with your church.
