Parking is $8 a day. The closest structure is the Nutwood Parking Structure. Students can be dropped off and picked up in the pull-through in front of the structure.
What should I wear?
It’s summer, and we are casual! So wear whatever makes you comfortable. Each student will receive a camp t-shirt to wear at the final performance.
Is there a performance?
