CAMP RULES
(Please read with
your parents)
Shoes and
socks are to be worn at all times. Flip flops
may be worn only for swimming. Bare feet are allowed
only in the pool, in the shower and in bed.
Long pants must be worn
on all activities in the woods.
Animals should not be
caught by anyone. We are guests in the animals’
homes. We can observe our hosts, but we must allow
them to live their lives as nature meant it.
Living plants and insects
should be observed in their own environment. We
should not collect living things as everything in
nature has a purpose.
Campers must have an
adult's permission before leaving the cabin at
anytime. If a camper needs to use the restroom,
including during the night, a staff member will
escort them.
Campers must stay with
their designated group at all times.
All campers in need of
medical attention must be accompanied by an
adult to the Nurse’s Station. This includes the
administration of all medications. All medications
must be kept at the Nurse’s Station in individual
containers. The nurses try very hard to give daytime
medications at meals so don’t send camper to nurse’s
station for morning meds unless a nurse has told you
to do this.
A hot, soapy shower
must be taken by each camper daily. Swim suits may
be worn.
Rock throwing and tree
climbing are not permitted at camp. ·
Food is not permitted
in the cabins.
All of the following will
not be allowed at camp: tobacco, matches, pipes,
alcohol, lighters, illegal drug products, radios,
tape players, electronic games, pocket knives,
money.
Physical assaults and
verbal abuse will not be tolerated.
Hairdryers, curling
irons and electric shavers are not allowed (campers
only).
