What do I need to bring to camp?
Campers should bring their own helmets, shoes, shells (shells are only needed for the Portland camp since it is a full contact camp) and mouthpiece.

It is also a good idea to bring water, snacks and sunscreen.

Will this be a full contact camp?
Yes, our Salem, OR camp will be a full contact camp so helmets and pads are required.
