Amenities
(What Your Dues Go Towards)
The camp amenities are plentiful and provide quite the cushy experience.
Why not live large in the desert!
Below is a list of all that is available within our camp.
Dues are not about a payment for what you get from the camp. Think of them instead as contribution, something that you give and as something that will allow you and the camp as a whole to contribute - dues are part of our collective gift, just as work or a physical gift is a contribution.
