!!!!NEW TIME!!!!!   Plan to arrive at the camp between 3 p.m.-4 p.m.  on Sunday, July 2nd for curbside check in at the gate. You will need to wait at the gate until 3:00pm. Please do not arrive with campers any earlier.

 

Anyone arriving in a car after 4:00pm will need to come to the NAC for check in (at the top of the hill).

DIRECTIONS TO CAMP  

Take I-75 South to I-20 East. Go east on I-20 to Exit #93. Exit and turn right onto SR 142. (There is a Wal-Mart on your right … one of the last good stops for items you may have forgotten!) Travel approximately one mile and cross over US 278 at the old Wal-Mart. Continue another 2.5 miles on SR 142 toward SR 36. (McDonald’s and CVS will be on your left as you approach SR 36.) Turn left and go approximately 9 miles on SR 36 to the Georgia FFA-FCCLA camp entrance on the left (easily identifiable by the small Guard House and large entrance sign.) Continue on entrance road approximately one mile. YOU HAVE ARRIVED!

 

CHECK IN PROCEDURE 

For Bus Riders: 

  1. All check-in will be done at Riverstone Church prior to boarding the buses. 

  2. Make sure EVERYTHING you bring has a name tag with your campers name and grade: ** One suitcase, one sleeping bag and one pillow**

  3. Students will mark all their belongings with tape that they will write their name and grade at the check in table. 

  4. Report all medical conditions or issues with the nurse at RiverStone during check-in. This will give us a chance to meet you and discuss any questions we may have. We can only accept medications in a pharmacy produced and labeled bottle. In addition, sending only the number of meds your camper will need administered for the week is very helpful.  

 

For those driving to camp: 

  1. Upon arrival to camp (between 3:00 and 4:00 PM), expect a line on the camp road.  We will be doing curbside check-in at the gate again this year and then you will drive straight to cabins for drop off. Please be patient!

  2. Report all medical conditions or issues with the nurse. If you have meds, you will pull over to speak with one of our medical staff right past the gate. This will give us a chance to meet you and discuss any questions we may have. We can only accept medications in a pharmacy produced and labeled bottle. In addition, sending only the number of meds your camper will need administered for the week is very helpful.
