Friday, May 9 – Saturday, May 10, 2025

The 6th Annual Whole School McKinley Campout & Movie Night is happening at the Joint Use Park on Friday, May 9th – Saturday, May 10th! 

Set up will begin at 3:30 pm on Friday, May 9. You can arrive any time before sunset to set up your tent (we suggest the earlier the better). Tent spaces are first-come, first-served. But all the spots are great – it’s a park after all. Don’t worry, we will not run out of space!

We will provide dinner on Friday and breakfast on Saturday morning. Volunteers will be serving hamburgers, hot dogs, and such for dinner. Please bring beverages and any other food your family would like.  Class of 2026 will be selling concessions to kick off their 5th grade fundraising for next school year. Breakfast will be Coffee, Pancakes, Bacon, and such.

We are asking that families donate $25+/- to participate if possible. Please Venmo Brijet Myers: @Brijet-Myers (last 4 phone digits 1023)
 
No one is required to pay anything, and we won’t be tracking who pays or not, but in the interest of being a revenue-neutral event due to Foundation Budget constraints, we need some $ to cover the costs:
Parks & Rec Permit: $308.47
Portable restrooms & handwash stations: $650
Propane: $45
Food (burgers & hot dogs, buns, pancakes, bacon, coffee): $900
Coffee: $285
= $2,188.47
