Where will the campers be staying during camp? All campers will reside at Granville Towers for the duration of camp. (919) 370-4500 Emergency ONLY! Campers MUST provide their own: PILLOW, BLANKET, BED LINEN, and TOWELS. The dormitory (Granville) is air-conditioned so you will not need to bring a fan. All campers are required to pay a $40 KEY DEPOSIT in cash which the camper will receive at Check-Out when they return their key. You will be assigned a roommate at registration if you have not already requested one. There are 2 people to a room, and 4 share the suite. In some instances there will be 3 campers to a room if the room is larger, every camper will always have their own bed.

Can a friend or family member in town pick up my daughter during camp to go out to eat or visit? Yes, but they must bring the signed Off Campus Permission Form to registration.
