What time does Night Tracks run?
Night Tracks begins promptly at 7:00 p.m. and ends the following morning at 11:00 a.m. Due to safety and security reasons, we cannot accommodate any participant needing to arrive or leave between the hours of 7:30 p.m. and 7:30 a.m.

What do I need to bring with me?
Sleeping bags and pillows are necessary, as you will be sleeping on the floor. Camping mats are provided. Please be sure to pack appropriate clothing (sleepwear, change of clothes, toiletries, outdoor garments and comfortable shoes). Unless weather is severe, we will continue with the outdoor portion of our program.
