New Pricing Structure

Riverside is changing the pricing structure for its weekend family camp programs. The adjustments are based on both lodging accommodations and family size in an effort to better match camp attendance for these events. This change does cause an increase in pricing, but gives you the benefit of a more personalized registration, as you will be able to select the room you would prefer to stay in. Specific cabins are listed with prices on online registration form for easy selection. When registering, you can select a specific room you are staying in, or a rustic cabin.

We will have our first gathering together at 5:30pm and then after dinner, we will have our first session together as well as fun family activities and a night game for the Children.
