Center Information
Sleeping Quarters: Volunteers will be split between dorm buildings and upper apartments around campus. We will also have the option of partitioning off the gym during peak weeks. There will be a mixture of bunk sleeping and needing an air mattress/cot. It’s best to plan to bring air mattresses, but the staff will be in touch to confirm what groups should bring.
Cafeteria/Kitchens: We will utilize the dining building on campus.
Showers: Bathrooms and showers are available on each floor of the dorm buildings.
Recreation Space: There is plenty of outdoor space on the school campus. The half of the gym under the chapel that volunteers are not sleeping in will also be available.
