Provided at Camp

Lodging at Camp Fox is comprised of 2 different types of accommodations:.  Villas and Cabins.  The Villas are located on or very close to the water.  They are open air permanent structures with roofs and no walls, sleeping 12 people per Villa.  The cabins are what you might expect for a cabin (sleep 12) and are located further away from the water. 

Bathrooms are located near all cabins and villas.

We have worked it out that each tribe will have a combination of Villas and Cabins.  The good news is if each tribe chooses to stay in the Villas, there is room to accommodate all members in each tribe. Should some tribe members choose not to be in the Villas, each tribe will also be assigned at least one cabin. Once again all Villa and Cabin assignments will be given to you at orientation.

Various sports equipment is provided, as well as:
Kayaks, canoes, life vests
Archery Equipment
DJ System & Dance lights
Video Projectors and Screens
Snorkeling Gear
Ping Pong
Foosball

Meals are Friday dinner through Sunday breakfast

IMPORTANT Please Read

1. We need every Chief to provide a physical count of Dad’s and Daughter’s that step on the boat: This is a mandatory safety requirement. Your count must be collected at the time you step on the boat. The Nation Chiefs will accept all this information. We want to leave no person behind. This is not the number signed up but the number on board at the time of departure. If anyone joins into these numbers please make sure to tell the Nation Chiefs.

Thank you for your cooperation,
The Nation Chiefs.
