We're so excited to be heading to Fuge Camp this summer, June 2-6! Students will need a 2025 medical release form and a camp waiver for Fuge camp. The camp waiver is required by the camp and students will pick the track times they want to participate in on the camp waiver. The cost of camp is $230. Payment is not required to sign up.
