Paul Bunyan Day

Picture
Few things are more iconic about camp than a crackling evening campfire or a hike through the woods. In order for children to experience these magical parts of being at camp, firewood and clear trails are a necessity. On Paul Bunyan Day, we unleash our inner lumberjack and turn what has fallen over the winter into useable firewood for our campers and guests.
Important information:
Equipment: Camp Dickenson has a limited amount of equipment. You are strongly encouraged to bring your own chainsaws, axes, mauls, splitters, wheelbarrows, 4WD vehicles. Camp has work gloves, eye and ear protection on hand, but you may choose to bring your own.
Who should attend?: Any adults who wish to help. Anyone under the age of 18 must have their parent or guardian physically on-site and with them while at camp.
What times?: We will gather beginning at 8:30 am in the main parking lot, and will begin heading to cut at 9 am. We will wrap up our day by 5 pm.
What about meals?: A hot lunch will be provided, along with hot and cold beverages throughout the day.
Will I need to sign a waiver?: Oh yeah. A big one.
​Should I tell you I plan to attend?: YES PLEASE. This helps us plan for the meal and anticipate how many project groups we will have. RSVP below.
Do I need to wear flannel and/or suspenders?: No, but it is encouraged.
