Minerva Day Camping

Camping on Minerva Day (July 4th):

Camping at the Minerva Campgrounds on Minerva Day is highly popular. To manage the demand, we will begin a waitlist in April. 

  • Beginning on April 1st, please submit your completed Camp Registration Form to be placed in the queue for Minerva Day, Saturday, July 4th, 2026. 
  • Please note, a minimum stay of two-nights is required for Minerva Day Weekend (e.g., check-in Friday, July 3rd, and check-out Sunday, July 5th).
  • Provide your completed forms at the time of your request. We will issue an invoice for payment online or arrange alternate payment options once a site has been assigned and you have confirmed your agreement to follow through.

*Once we assign a site for the request, please respond as soon as possible. If we continue to have requests, we may not be able to hold your site for more than 10 days.

Important Deadlines:
You must complete your registration, submit payment, and provide all required documentation within 10 calendar days of your initial request. If mailing materials, please do so promptly to ensure you do not lose your reservation.
 
Pet Requirements:
If you have pets, we require proof of rabies vaccination at the time of registration. Failure to provide this may result in the cancellation of your registration. Acceptable proof includes:
– A veterinarian’s document listing the date of inoculation and the expiration date.
– A current dog license receipt (not just a tag number) that shows the vaccination and expiration dates.
 
Group Sites:
Group sites are prioritized for authorized organizations such as Scout Troops and Youth Groups. Individuals may reserve a group site but must treat it as a tent-only site. Individual reservations are limited to a maximum of 4 adults and a total of 8 people (including children). Individuals are not permitted to host large groups on these sites.
 
**WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO CANCEL YOUR RESERVATION IF ALL REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION IS NOT RECEIVED.**
