1. EVERYONE MUST REGISTER ONLINE. You can do so HERE.
2. Be at the Annex at 5pm Friday, along with your overnight bag (including clothes, toiletries, sleeping bag, pillow, swimsuit and towel) if you are staying at a host home. Dinner is provided (and breakfast at your host home).
3. Make sure you bring your updated Waiver and Release Form (available to download during online registration).
4. Saturday, we begin at 10am at the Annex. Bring your swimsuit and towel and a change of clothes. Lunch and a snack is provided. We'll finish up by 7pm.

6. Students are asked to wear their new LIFT shirts that morning, and also bring a swimsuit and towel again, because after lunch we'll head out to the FFA camp for the pool, zip-line, and blob. We'll be back at the Annex by 4:30pm.
