Check-in & Check Out

Check in will be at the Lyons Den Camp Office just across the stream, near the entrance to camp.  Crews may check-in together as a group, or they can check in individually if traveling to camp separate.  Reminder that all gear will be hauled to your campsite by your Crew Advisor once issued a vehicle pass for your campsite (or you may option to backpack your gear to your site.)

Crews can check out on Sunday morning after the Venturing Officers Association Annual Assembly meeting (around 9:30 - 10AM).  All Crews are expected to clean up their campsite of all litter and leave it in as good or better condition then when you arrived.

 

Camping facilities:

Camp C.S. Klaus (www.campklaus.org) is a beautiful 200+ acre camp situated in two wooded valleys NW of Colesburg Iowa. The camp has served as the Northeast Iowa Council's main camping facility since 1956.  At Camp Klaus you will find Lake John Deere, the picturesque water falls, almost all facilities are new or have been recently renovated, a beach, shooting range, 40ft tall climbing and rappelling tower, many hiking trails and seven beautiful wooded campsites.  In 2010 the camp will be showcasing a major improvement in an entirely remodeled and expanded "Munter Lodge" dining hall.

 

Each campsite at Camp C.S. Klaus has many large 2 person open air tents with wood floors and cots provided.  Crews will be assigned to their campsite upon check-in.  Each campsite has a fire ring (or two), picnic tables, latrine and running water.

 

Vehicle Pass:

Your crew advisor will be issued 1 vehicle pass to take your crew's gear to your campsite so please plan on arriving with your entire crew close to the same time.  The vehicle pass may only be used only for hauling gear to your campsite on Friday night and for hauling gear out on Sunday morning.  The vehicle may remain parked in your campsite during the weekend.  All vehicles are subject to camp rules and must drive slowly (less then 10 MPH) through camp by approved adults.  Vehicles are not to be used for any other purpose.  All other vehicles must remain parked in the parking lot near the parade grounds.

 

Meals:

Meals will be provided in the Munter Lodge Dining Hall on Saturday (breakfast, lunch and dinner) and Sunday (breakfast).  We will have a cracker barrel available late on Friday evening so plan on eating prior to arriving at camp.

 

Showers:

Private shower facilities will be available at the Burchwood shower house on the top of the hill near most of the campsites.


Adult Leadership:

All crews must have adequate adult leadership.  Co-ed crews must have at least one male and one female advisor camping with the Crew in their campsite.

 

Storm shelters

Storm shelters at Camp C.S. Klaus are located in the dining hall basement (entrance on side facing the lake), the bottom of the health lodge, and the bottom of the VC (Visitors Center) building.  On short notice, there are many large sink holes near the campsites that can be used to seek shelter by lying along the inside edges of the sink hole.
