Camp Amenities

By pooling our resources (aka dues), we’re able to build a camp that’s comfortable, well-equipped, and ready to handle playa together... with these amenities.

⚡️ Power

Each camper is required to bring a 50-ft extension cord of 14 wire gauge or greater to extend power into their own tent. A plug strip is recommended for connecting multiple devices.

💧 Drinking Water

We will have unlimited drinking water our campers can obtain.

🚿 Showers

SnoHo will have our own private showers built by our amazing build leads.

🚽 Private Portos

We will have our own private porto for just our camp. It will be serviced daily and kept very clean.

📶 Wi-Fi

We will have Starlink to provide Wi-Fi for our camp. It will be password protected.

🌴 Shade Structure

Campers who elect to tent will be given a 10' x 10' allocation under our camp Shade Structure. Due to limited space, personal tents will need to fit within this allocation.

🍽️ Meal Plan for Purchase

We are partnering with our neighboring HUB camp Swing City to provide a meal plan option. It will include at least 1 shift in the Swing City camp’s kitchen.

🚲 Bike Rental & Delivery

We will set up transporting bikes directly to our camp if purchased from our vendor.
