FALL CAMP 2010 PARTICIPANT AGREEMENT

The mission of "With A Little Help…", Inc. is to provide our participants with a safe and enjoyable experience while attending either our summer or weekend camp. It is our hope that the application and interview process will answer any of your questions as well as help the camp staff determine who you are best suited to be paired with. With that in mind there are also certain expectations we have of both adult campers and volunteers. We ask you to read these expectations and be prepared to follow them if you choose to attend camp. Violations from these expectations may result in you being asked to leave camp.

- Once at camp I will not leave. Our insurance policy does not cover any person or persons leaving camp without permission.

- I will participate in orientation. This orientation is required of both first-time and veteran adult campers and volunteers.

- I will have respect for others and their personal property.

- For volunteers – my first responsibility will be that of my adult camper. While we want you to have a good experience, the needs of your camper must come first. If you feel you need some time to yourself, communicate that with your cabin leader or the camp coordinator.

- Camp Wawbeek and/or Pioneer Camp rules should be adhered to. Respect their property and avoid secured areas.

- Absolutely NO alcohol and/or illegal drugs will be tolerated at camp. Your first offense will result in immediate dismissal from camp and a one year suspension. Your second offense will result in immediate and permanent suspension from attending W.A.L.H. camps.

- Most importantly have FUN! – Whether you’re a camper or volunteer use this experience to meet new friends, get involved in activities and go home with the realization that you made a difference in the lives of others.

Please also know the important role that both long time adult campers and volunteers play at camp. Along with your cabin leader use them as a resource. Respect them for their experience and use the opportunity to learn from them.
