Hands in 4 Youth Camp, West Milford NJ.

We will be staying in camp cabins, which are pretty spare. Most of the rooms are shared; we may be able to accommodate a few people who want a solo room, but not many. We will ask about roommate preferences soon.

The camp provides pillows, sheets, and blankets, but you should also bring your own more comfortable ones if you want.

You must bring your own towels and toiletries!

Food[edit]

The camp will be providing all of our meals. Please make sure Alison is aware of your dietary needs well in advance! The camp can accommodate vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, vegan and gluten-free, and more.

Our accommodations include kitchens in each building, so we will have plenty of space to bring our own snacks and drinks.
