Camping – TSSC has reserved Group Campsite H at Hickory Run. This site can hold up to 40 campers. The cost will be split by the folks using the site.

If you want to stay at the group site, please contact Tom Butcher. Individual camp sites are available if you prefer, they cost roughly $25-30/night with a 2 night minimum.
