Make sure to form your teams ahead of time. Sign-ups are available at check-in, leader orientation, or immediately after the first session before small groups. All teams must sign up for tournaments by the end of night one.

Day 4 Free Time:
After lunch on Day 4, the afternoon is yours to spend with your group. No recreation tournaments are scheduled this day, so you can relax on-site and enjoy the beach or head off-site for activities. Off-property options include arcades, bungee jumping, miniature golf, Pier Park outdoor shopping center, Shipwreck Island Water Park, and Ripley’s Believe It or Not Museum. For more options in the Panama City Beach area, visit our Activities page or check out Visit Visit Panama City’s website.

Dinner on Night 4:
An optional dinner is available from the Boardwalk Beach Resort. To participate, contact julie.dunkin@RAbeachgetaways.com to discuss meal and price options. The resort must know your decision at least one month before camp begins.

If you choose not to join the meal, dinner is on your own. Check out our Restaurants page here for nearby dining options. If you decide to eat on-site, please note that hotel policy requires food to be kept and eaten in your hotel rooms, as it cannot be served in common areas.

Get in touch with the BigStuf leader relations team for more help.

Our team is here to simplify every step of the process for you, ensuring that you can focus on leading effectively or fully enjoying camp alongside your students.
