Each camp session will have up to 12 children attending, ages 8-18 plus several adult counselors who also like to look through eyepieces and work with the kids to help things go smoothly.  Setup starts at 8PM, and the kids are generally off to bed by 10PM.

The camp sessions are held on the JD McCarty Center campus in their camp area, which is a large open area with a few camp buildings away from the rest of the complex. There is good visibility to horizons in all directions, with moderate light pollution.

Any club member with a scope and who enjoys working with kids is welcome to attend.  We have a few volunteers who have regularly attended in the past, but fresh faces are always welcome!  There is plenty of space for setup with a large open field.  Since the kids will only have an hour or so after twilight before they generally need to head off to bed multiple scopes looking at different objects works very well.
