to begin Wilderness Vigil proceedings at 1 pm, Oct 22 at
the Territorial Rep’s tent

a timely manner. Upon arrival campers will unload gear,
move vehicles to designated parking areas, and then

after arrival. This is for the convenience of all campers
and will ensure that everyone has an ample opportunity
to get settled into camp without being hindered by an
excessive amount of vehicles. Vehicles will not be
allowed in camp during the event. This will help add to
the authenticity of the event as we will be taking pictures
periodically. Thank you for your cooperation.
- After camp, please have all gear ready to load into your
vehicle prior to bringing your vehicle into camp. Quickly
load and take your vehicle back to the parking area in
order to allow space for all campers to load their gear.
- Rendezvous will officially end at the closing ceremony
around Noon on Saturday, Oct 24. Everyone will need to
plan on vacating the campground before the end of the
day on that Saturday. If there is a reason you need to
leave on Sunday after the event you need to make
arrangements with the Contact person on the second
page of this packet.
- Please adhere to all camp rules.
