PARKING

There is 1-2 hour free parking on the street before 6:00pm, but in many cases
you will need more time, and they do ticket. Your best options: park a little
farther west down Market St on the same side where there are often all day
free parking spaces available.

Your very best lunch option is to send a sack lunch.

We have a kitchen with a refridgerator and microwave.
We will provide snacks each day. And you may also send along snack foods.

If you want to send cash these are just a few of the restaurants that are very close
by and staff will take campers over to pick-up lunch to bring back to camp.

• Kiss Cafe (Sandwiches)
• Lockspot Cafe (Fish and Chips)
• Taco Time
