Read and sign the cellphone/electronics agreement

In this technology age it is difficult for you and your child to not be in contact via cell phone. Camp is a unique environment. We are trying to help youth develop life skills at camp including independence and self-reliance. Oftentimes homesickness, which is a normal part of a week at camp, can be worsened by talking to mom and dad. We respect and appreciate the wonderful relationship youth and families have, but if your campers are to enjoy the camp fully they must be able to develop this independence.

Campers are not allowed to bring cell phones or any other electronic devices to camp. If a cell phone or other electronics are brought with a camper they must be turned into the Camp Office upon arrival. Campers do not have access to camp phones. If there is an emergency or we are concerned about the youth’s well-being, parents will be contacted. I am not to bring a cell phone or other electronics to camp.
