Opening and Closing Day

Opening Day

Opening Day Check-In starts at 1:00pm on the Sunday of each session at Camp Firwood. Our staff will direct you through the following steps to get your camper checked in:

Step 1: Health Screening

Each camper must check in with a Health Screener to look over the Health Form, check in any medications and discuss any allergies.

Step 2: Swim Challenge

Each camper will have the opportunity to take the Swim Challenge. This will allow our waterfront staff to identify the swimming level of your camper. The Swim Challenge consists of swimming 50 feet and treading water for 1 minute. Please have a swimsuit and towel ready for the Swim Challenge.

Step 3: Cabin Assignment

After you have completed the Swim Challenge, come on back up the hill and check in with the Men’s and Women’s Lead counselors. They will call down your counselor who will greet you and help you move into your cabin.

Opening Day Check-In starts at 1:00pm, please do not arrive before this time.

Closing Day

Pick-Up of campers is at the Fircreek Day Camp Parking Lot [directions]. Campers will be bused from camp to the parking lot in trips starting to arrive at 9:30 am. Please be on time to pick up your camper. There will be opportunities to purchase the Camp Firwood DVD from your campers week and clearance merchandise from the Honey Hut as well.
