What to bring:
What NOT to bring:
Please do not bring laptops, iPads, Nintendo Switches, etc. Contact lens equipment is fine--however, due to all the dust, you may want to opt for glasses.
Marking Luggage:
Please mark your entire luggage with the letters “CBS” (printed on masking tape is fine). This is to ensure that any lost items will make their way to camp. You will want to keep your valuables and your personal/carry on bag with you while on the boat to speed up luggage handling time when you arrive at CBS.
Phones & Wi-Fi:
Most cell phones do not work at camp. CBS has neither cell coverage nor public WiFi, but does have a pay phone for outgoing calls. If someone needs to get a message to you, they can call (310) 510-0015.
Travel:
Travel arrangements and gas pricing will be arranged by campus groups. Talk to your InterVarsity staff or chapter president for more info.
Cancellation Policy:
The $77 deposit due at registration is non-refundable (we still have to pay for ferry spots despite cancellations). Any other fees paid will be returned upon cancellation.

While at camp, there are different options for tracks that you can attend. Please choose one of these when you register.
Mark I - Repent & Believe!
Come live with Jesus in chapters 1-8 of Mark's Gospel. Using a manuscript study format, we will meet Jesus together in a fresh, up close, and personal way. Not only will we discover more about the nature and values of God’s kingdom, we will also gain valuable Bible study skills to enrich your personal and group Bible study and worship. Choose this track if this is your first time at Chapter Camp!
Mark II - The King Who Serves!
Mark II (Chapters 9-16) is a continuation of Mark I. Dive into the rest of the story. Meet Jesus in the climax of his life, death and resurrection. See the unfolding tragedy as his enemies and his followers struggle to understand who He is and what to do. Be challenged to discover true discipleship as you learn about following Jesus into difficult places. Signup for this track if you have already been through Mark I.
