At camp, we have a lot of rules. These rules are aimed at camper and staff safety and, when followed, contribute to the health of our community, our grounds, and your camper. We follow a restorative justice approach to disciplining when a rule is broken. By following this approach, we recognize that the number one way to avoid problems is to build the camp community each week. Trust and respect for each other go a long way in preventing problems before they arise. When a rule or trust is broken, we make every effort to come to a solution collectively between parties. Our number one goal is reconciliation with the community after conflict, and we recognize this as a growing edge of our program. Our camper parents can partner with us in this approach by explaining rules and the community aspect of camp to their camper prior to their time at camp.
