Code of Conduct
Camper Code of Conduct – Summer Camp 2024
Here at Alta Summer Camp, we are dedicated to providing an excellent summer camp experience for our campers. To accomplish this goal, campers are expected to behave appropriately and promote a safe, fun and healthy community environment. Our goal is to promote character values of caring, honesty, respect, and personal responsibility in all aspects of our camp program. We ask that all campers and parents/guardians read this code together before arriving at camp.
As a camper, I will:
RESPECT
- Be respectful, cooperative and contribute positively to the experience of fellow campers.
- Be careful and consider that my actions will not hurt another camper’s feelings or hurt them physically, either intentionally or accidentally.
- Show respect to the camp staff and cooperate fully with their instructions. Always follow directions.
- Respect the rights and beliefs of others and treat others with courtesy and consideration.
- Respect the property of others.
PERSONAL SPACE AND PROPERTY
- Be respectful of all camp property and equipment/supplies.
- Never mark, deface or destroy camp or personal property.
BEHAVIOR
- Conduct myself responsibly. I understand that excessive horseplay, inappropriate touching, unwelcome teasing/bullying or any unkind behavior is not allowed and will not be tolerated.
- Communicate in an appropriate manner, which means I will not use foul language, gestures, or harsh words. I will not raise my voice or use verbal threats of any kind.
- Refrain from deliberately causing bodily harm to the campers or staff. I understand that pushing, kicking, hitting or fighting are not acceptable behaviors. This behavior will not be tolerated and will be grounds for suspension/dismissal from the camp program.
SAFETY
- Campers must have a pair of closed toe shoes at camp. Campers may also bring a pair of sandals to be worn inside and on their way down the canyon at the end of the day.
- Campers need to pay attention to their surroundings and use care in all activities.
- Campers will adhere to all safety rules and regulations given for each activity that he/she participates in while at camp.
GENERAL
- Campers are expected to wear appropriate clothing to camp each day. Appropriate clothing entails clothing appropriate for the weather forecast for the day; clothing should fit properly and protect them from the elements.
- Campers must inform the camp staff if they are experiencing a problem with another camper or other issues. If a staff member is not informed about a problem, they cannot assist the camper or stop the problem.
- We expect all campers to have the opportunity for FUN, but not at the expense of others.
- Campers are encouraged to participate in activities to the best of their ability.
- Weapons, look-alike weapons, or objects that may be used to threaten, intimidate, or harm others or to damage property may not be brought to camp.
- Cell phones are only permitted for emergency use only or with approval from Alta Summer Camp staff.
Cell phones and all other electronics will be collected and returned each day. If you need to get into contact with your child, please contact the Alta Summer Camp staff through the Brightwheel app, and we will help put you in contact with your child as quickly as we can.
Violation of the Code of Conduct can be grounds for disciplinary actions including but not limited to automatic suspension/dismissal. If a camper is suspended during camp, a partial refund will be issued for the week of camp. Refunds are not given when a camper is dismissed from the camp program.
