Gear to Bring


April weather on Gibraltar is unpredictable and often cold, so check the weather forecast and dress accordingly in clothes that can get dirty. If it rains, we’ll still be working, which makes rain gear a must. Meals, bedding/pillows, and towels will be provided, but please bring toiletries. Rooms may not be heated.


Registration is closed
 

Registration is not final until you receive confirmation from the Put-in-Bay Stone Lab office. Registration is required even if you arrange accommodations and meals elsewhere. Please call 419-285-1800 with questions. We’ve reached maximum capacity for this event, so registration is closed. Housing is dormitory-style, including bunk beds.
