Tent Camping

• Cost: tent camping is free

• Sites: camping is permitted (and encouraged!) on-site at West Salem Mission. Sites are located along the back side of the pond, in the woods, along tree lines. There are no developed sites, just grass and woods. Tents are allowed anywhere within those specified areas. If you have a question, please ask a volunteer where you may camp.

• Electric & Water: there are no electric or water hookups in the camping area. Potable water is available from hydrants located near the barn. Electrical outlets are available in the red barn for charging personal items.

• Equipment: you must bring your own camping equipment, such as tent, sleeping bag, tarp, etc. The West Salem Mission does not provide camping equipment. Rains can be very heavy sometimes.

• Campfires: personal cookstoves are permitted, but campfires are not allowed.

• Pets: you are allowed to bring pets but you must camp in Dog Patch. We discourage animals in the meeting tent.

• Bathrooms & Showers: porta-johns are on-site, along with hand-washing stations. Showers are available in a portable shower trailer.
