Summer Camp Gear List
                  

*Please label all items and ensure your child does NOT bring: electronic devices (cell phones, games, radios...), matches, knives, junk food or money.   If any of these items are brought to camp, staff will be happy to keep them until the end of the week.  Camp Encounter and/or camp staff will not be held responsible for lost or stolen items.  If your child leaves some things behind, we will be happy to hang on to it for one month after the final day of your child’s camp.  After that time, we will wash and sort items and have them donated to Catholic Social Services or a similar organization.  Please contact us as soon as you realize something is missing.  Parents are responsible for arranging the pickup of items.

Inappropriate Behavior

There is some behavior that is considered inappropriate at camp.  Swearing, name calling, inappropriate conversations, smoking and fighting (or any form of aggressive physical contact) are a few behaviors that are considered unacceptable.  Children who display any form of unacceptable behavior will be given a warning.  If the negative behavior continues the parents will be contacted and the child given a second warning.  If there is a third occurrence the parents will be asked to come out to camp to pick up their child.

Dress Code

We maintain high standards of modesty.  Please take note of the following:

*All shirts must meet the waistband all the way around when hands on head and elbows pointed out.

*Suitable undergarments must be worn under clothes, and may not show.

*Skin tight clothing is inappropriate.

*Minimum in-seam measurement is 3 inches.

*Bathing suits must be one piece, without peek-a-boo openings.

*Pictures, text, etc. in clothing may not glorify the occult, immoral or illegal themes, or anti-biblical ideologies are not allowed.

Thank you for your cooperation in supporting these standards.
