Staff Volunteer Code of Conduct

We will ALWAYS be above reproach when interacting with campers both in and out of camp. Unfortunately, our world has become so stained that people are quick to judge. Our actions and intentions must always be pure and honoring to Christ. The subject of physical contact is so fragile with kids and should be taken with the utmost concern and seriousness by every staff member.

The following are guidelines for appropriate/inappropriate conduct with campers:
