All are welcome! This will be an open house style event, so come when you can for some delicious wood-fired pizza! Bay Lake Camp is an island! The address listed is the parking lot. A pontoon shuttle will take you the short distance from the mainland to the island. Shuttles will be every ~10 minutes beginning at 5pm, but if you arrive early or the shuttle doesn't seem to be running (you can see it from shore at all times), call or text any of the numbers listed on the white box by the dock to request a pick-up. If you're staying on the island Friday night, feel free to come over to the island at any time to get your room assignment and get settled in. There is no designated check-in time. Roasts and Toasts will begin at 8:00pm - open mic style!

For those who arrive on Friday and are looking for some fun activities for Saturday before the wedding, there is a small field on the island that would be great for kickball, soccer, frisbee, croquet, bocce ball, or pretty much any other outdoor game! There are also canoes/kayaks on the island that are free to use. There is an awesome sand bar off one side of the island for swimming, although the water may be pretty chilly by then (we recommend packing a beach towel if you plan on swimming). There are also a few breweries in nearby Crosby, and multiple breweries in Brainerd about 30 minutes away. There may be a few wineries as well...but Minnesota wine is notoriously horrible so we'd recommend sticking with beer. When the date gets closer and the weather gets more predictable, we'll send out an email with activity updates!

Cocktail attire. It's a summer camp with a mix of paved and dirt paths...so keep that in mind for shoe choices!
Bay Lake Camp is an island! The address listed is the parking lot. A pontoon shuttle will take you the short distance from the mainland to the island. Shuttles will be every 10 minutes beginning at 2pm, but if you arrive early or the shuttle doesn't seem to be running (you can see it from shore at all times), call any of the numbers listed on the white box by the dock to request a pick-up. If you're staying on the island on Saturday night, please come a little early to get checked in and find your room! The ceremony site is about a 5-10 minute walk from where the shuttle drops you off. It's a beautiful walk through the woods along the lake, but there will also be golf carts shuttling those who would prefer to not walk. Please note this is an adults only evening.

Kelly's parents will be hosting a farewell brunch at their cabin on Bay Lake. We'd love for you to stop by on your way out, or say hello again if you're sticking around the area! This will be an open house style event, so stop by when you can. Please be considerate of the neighbors when parking, it's a residential street with no shoulder so if you can park on the south side of the street (farthest from the lake), please do!
