You were saying it has a kitchen in the announcement, but I was hearing from people up here for our Seattle event this past weekend that the kitchen would not be usable since you have to have a food handlers card to use it? If I remember the camp from my scouting days, it does have fire pits and the like - what other arrangements for cooking are being made?

Actually, the kitchen will be unusable because they are "repairing/upgrading" it. (Upgrading, because they want to improve the facility, repairing because the contractors cut the water and sewage lines.) All these problems cropped up after we reserved the site, unfortunately.

There are a number of grills that we will have available to players, and they are welcome to bring their own grills. (It would be a wise idea to bring charcoal, in any case.) There are firepits set up in some of the major campsites, but the players have indicated that they would prefer to set up in a more central area. Hopefully, the facilities will be completed/repaired by the next time that we use Chesebrough. In fact, I would prefer that we not set up any more events here until that circumstance occurs.
