If you are wondering whether you will be hungry and craving some home-cooked meals, don’t worry; BYU has fabulous dining halls where all workshop participants will enjoy buffet-style meals. If the cafeterias don’t suit your fancy, there are several alternatives such as the Cougareat and the Creamery, where students are welcome to purchase whatever they want at their own cost.

Those of you who enjoy the fun atmosphere of the residence halls will be happy to know that you will have breakfast, lunch, and dinner provided, courtesy of the Morris Center or Cannon Center cafeterias.

Housing
You may decide to stay in the residence halls during your camp experience. You can request a friend as a roommate (kind of like Bert and Ernie), or you can choose to roll solo and make a new friend. The residence halls are amazing places to chillax and kick it playing games, talking with new buddies, and possibly eating junk food.

There will be a camp counselor there for you and your new friends. You will have a wonderful time getting to know your counselor and will come to love and look up to him or her. The camp counselors are current college students, so you can feel free to ask any one of them about their college experience. These camp counselors will also be great friends to you if the week gets tough. Past camp participants have often referred to their camp counselors as life coaches.

There are separate residence hall buildings provided for girls and boys. Make sure you remember that the opposite sex is never allowed in your bedrooms. You can have your new guy friends or girl friends hang out in the residence hall lobbies. You also should be involved in the camp activities during the day rather than wasting your time away in the residence halls. Slackers usually are not our most beloved and favored…so beware.

To make your camp experience pleasant for you and everyone else, make sure you bring enough clean clothes, shampoo, soap, deodorant and any other toiletries necessary to look and smell your very best. Towel exchange happens every Wednesday, so if you have a big thing for fresh, clean towels, bring extra.
