October 9th-14th 2025

Sukkot, or the Feast of Tabernacles, is the last of the biblical fall festivals described and given to us in Leviticus 23. Like all the biblical festivals, Sukkot points us to events in the past as a remembrance as well as events in the future that we await the fulfillment of. Zechariah 14 speaks of a time in the future when all nations will come up to Jerusalem in honor of this festival. For Yedidei Adonai (YAD), it is the best time to come together for good food, fellowship, and celebration!
*New this year: Pet policy! See below. **Also new to this page: projected schedule of camp activities! Scroll all the way to the bottom of this page. This schedule is primarily based on previous years and should not be considered finalized at this time.

Some Things You Should Know...
|
The location of Sky Camp is part of sacred lands belonging to Native Americans. As such, absolutely no digging or driving into the ground is permitted--this includes tent stakes! Tents can be secured by other means, such as sandbags or other heavy objects, as well as tying off to nearby trees. In addition to this, no artifacts, including rocks, are to be removed from the camp. Violators may face hefty fines.
Tent and dry vehicle camping will be on a first-come, first-serve basis. Space for tents is plentiful and there are fields and forested areas to put your tent. There are two RV spaces with electrical hookups that will be available first to those with medical needs (such as a CPAP machine). |

There is no public WiFi available at the camp, but hotspotting works well.
If you are registering for a bunk or cabin space, these will be assigned with consideration given to others you would like to be near. All cabins have a small, common sitting room and three or four rooms with bunks. You must help clean your cabin before leaving, and inform the organizer if you are leaving before October 14th.

There is one designated outdoor fire pit/mini amphitheater and a large fireplace inside the lodge. Firewood is provided, but actually having fires will be subject to the local fire department regulations determined at the time.
The camp does not allow food or beverages inside the cabins (besides covered water bottles) and any personal cooking must be done only at the designated graveled area in front of Moony Lodge (there will be an outdoor set-up for this purpose). When not in use, propane tanks must be disconnected and stored in a location indicated by the camp host. Because these rules are fairly limiting for such a large group, breakfast and dinner will be provided inside Moony Lodge to all Sukkot-goers at no additional cost.
Alcohol is permitted in Moony Lodge and we encourage its use in the spirit of Deuteronomy 4:26, to increase our festival joy and relaxation. However, drunkenness and inappropriate, alcohol-induced behaviors will not be tolerated.
UPDATED: Well-trained pets under 50lbs will be allowed for RV campers only. They must be in outdoor spaces only, leashed at all times, and their waste must be picked up. If you have a reactive dog or one that barks late at night or early in the morning, please be considerate of your fellow campers and find other arrangements for them.
Camp participation is expected, so please be prepared to sign up to volunteer in a specific area on the registration form and bring your best! We appreciate everyone's time and talents in making this a safe and joyous occasion for all.
