For those of you who plan on braving the elements at Snow Moot 2009, this section is for you. Camping will take place in one of our large open fields and a site will be assigned to you upon check-in Friday night. Groups who are planning on camping outside should come self-contained and be prepared for all types of weather. Firewood will be available for $2.00 a Wheelbarrow. There is running water, but all washroom facilities are located outside in kybos.

Please Note: This year no outside wood is allowed to be brought into CampNemo.

CABINS:

Cabins will once again be offered for use during the weekend of Snow Moot. If you wish to obtain a cabin for the weekend, please read this section very carefully and fill out the cabin application form and send it in with your registration. Cabins will be assigned on a first come first serve basis. In order to guarantee your spot in a cabin it is advisable to register early. All those groups who receive a cabin will get a courtesy call or email to confirm their booking. Groups who wish to receive a cabin are required to send in a $75.00 deposit with their registration. Now here is where it may get confusing, the $75.00 deposit must be made up of 2 cheques.

The first cheque will be a damage deposit for the amount of $50.00. This amount will be refunded after Snow Moot providing that there is no damage sustained to your cabin over the course of the weekend.

The second cheque is for cabin maintenance and will be for the amount of $25.00. This cheque will not be refunded! It is absolutely mandatory that all groups wishing to use a cabin follow this procedure. Those groups not sending in two separate cheques, will not receive a cabin.

If you have a special medical needs for a cabin please note it on the cabin application form. Groups assigned to a cabin will come self-contained and should expect to be sharing a cabin with other group(s), because you will be sharing. There is electricity in the cabins but not washrooms. Please note that cabins will be filled to capacity.

All events are competitive and groups will be awarded points also for participating in them. The more points the better. Events will run all day Saturday and will take place both in and out of doors. Awards will be handed out at closing on Sunday.

FRIDAY ICE BREAKERS:

Yes, by popular demand and the fact our paper cuts haven’t healed from making fake money two years ago, the Ice Breaker events are happening. Come out try you hand or body at these events. Make new friends, meet some old ones, and just sit in the corner and mind your own business. We guarantee it to be a great time for all.

SATURDAY NIGHT DANCE:

Q: What would be a moot with out a Dance? A: A moot without a Dance. Sorry to say, Snow Moot staff likes to get their groove on, so like always we will have the best Moot Dance ever. There will be something for everyone.
