TROOP MITRE 2025 SPRING EVENTS
SPRING CLEANING APRIL 1-3
MITRE MAGIC MINI REUNION APRIL 4-6
This spring we have something for everyone at our back-to-back Spring Cleaning and Reunion. Come early and help us clean and prep Camp Mitre Peak or come to the reunion to see your friends and enjoy your favorite camp. OR come for both!
Spring Cleaning is open to those who love Camp Mitre Peak who are 18 years of age or older. Spring Cleaning participants are welcome to stay over Thursday night to attend the Reunion.
Mitre Magic Mini-Reunion: We’re trying something new, and we are excited about it! Our big reunions are a lot of fun, but five years is a long time between reunions. If you are one of those people who just can’t wait for another reunion, this event is for you! The Reunion is open to Camp Mitre Peak alumnae and their friends and family. Children ages 10 and older may attend with their parent or close family member. Any participant under 18 must be accompanied by an adult who provides supervision at all times.
To keep the event simple and affordable, we’ll have simple dinners and breakfasts prepared by teams of participants, using a Kaper chart, and lunch will be on your own. During the event, we will visit with friends, sing, play, visit attractions in the surrounding area, or hike on the property. There will be trading post items for sale.

Registration Form
-
Two-event form: Registration for both events will be on the same form. The form includes instructions to make sure you register for the intended event(s), but if you encounter difficulty, call the number on the form, and we’ll be happy to assist you. Each participant registers on a separate form.
-
On-line Participant List: An online list of participants will be available for participants to view. The list will assist event leaders with planning, facilitate ride sharing, and help satisfy the curious. The list will include name, city of residence, and phone number. To safeguard that information, only registered participants will be able to view the list, and the list will be removed at the end of the event. On the registration form, you will have the opportunity to consent or decline having your phone number and/or city included. If you do not want your name on the list at all, just email us at troopmitre@gmail.com. That request will be honored.
Event fees
Because Spring Cleaning is being held during the week and in conjunction with the mini reunion, this year there will be no fee for Spring Cleaning. The registration form offers you an opportunity to donate toward the costs of the event. There is a fee for the reunion that covers the cost of four meals plus site rental. We want everyone who would like to come to be able to attend. If this fee schedule prevents your attendance, please contact us at troopmitre@gmail.com to request financial assistance.
Register by March 21— $65 per adult, $35 per child
After March 21— $80 per adult, $50 per child
The registration form also allows you to renew your annual sponsorship and make donations to Troop Mitre’s Feed the Flame and Send a Girl to Camp Funds.
Meals
Spring Cleaning meals will be prepared by Tass and other volunteer cooks Tuesday dinner through Friday breakfast.
Reunion meals will be provided Friday dinner, Saturday breakfast, Saturday dinner, and Sunday breakfast.
To help with planning, indicate on the registration form which meals you will attend and if you can bring a contribution for the dessert bar. Our cooks will accommodate any special dietary needs listed on your registration form.
There will be no meal service prior to Tuesday dinner and no meal service for Friday lunch or Saturday lunch. Participants may eat in town or bring food for those meals. If you want to cook, you may use the kitchens in the LVP, Kiva, or Kickapoo Lodge. Ms. Effie’s has a kitchen with a stove, oven, microwave, and refrigerator. However, Ms. Effie’s kitchen does not currently have any cooking or eating utensils or other supplies. If you plan to store any food while at camp, please store it in one of those kitchens. Please clean cooking areas well and return supplies to their original location. Do not bring food to any of the sleeping areas. Store food in rodent-proof containers, mark it with your name, and take leftovers with you when you leave.
