Summer Camp at Wolf Ridge
Enriching Kid's Lives:
Growing Up Outdoors

Arrival & Departure

Sunday Check-in from 3:00 - 5:00

Check-in takes place at the West Dormitory. When you reach the campus area, follow the one-way loop and signs to the West Dorm. You do not need to stop at the Main Office. Campers may begin checking in at 3 PM on the first day of their session. All campers must arrive by 5 PM for dinner. You may arrive before 3 PM to visit the site, but campers must be under the supervision of an adult until check-in. Staff members are not available before 3 PM.

At check-in, you will be asked to review the health form you returned to Wolf Ridge, pay the balance of the fee, and turn in any medications necessary for the week.

After check-in, a counselor will greet you and show you to your camper's room where you can help them unpack. Once your child is settled, feel free to tour Wolf Ridge. Parents and guests who wish to stay for dinner must reserve in advance by calling 800-523-2733 (MN, WI, ND). Dinner costs $7.00 per person. If you choose to stay for dinner, please allow your camper to eat with their group if they wish, so that the kids in your camper's group get to know each other as soon as possible.

Saturday Check-out from 9:00 - 11:30 a.m.

Campers can be picked up between 9:00 and 11:30 am on the last day of their session in the West Dorm lobby. You must check out with the Summer Youth Program staff in the dorm lobby before leaving with your child. For safety reasons, we will be asking for identification from the adults picking up campers. After checking out of the dorm, you are welcome to stay and explore the Wolf Ridge buildings and trails until 4 pm.
