Youth Camp Rules

General Guidlines:

1. The camper must receive permission from camp director before leaving the campground for any reason.
2. All illnesses or injuries must be reported to the camp director immediately.
3. Inappropriate displays of romantic affection are not permitted.
4. Youth who are not registered campers will not be allowed in the dorms during youth camp.
5. Cars of campers must be parked, locked and not moved except with permission of camp director for the duration of the youth camp.

Dress Requirements:

1. Tabernacle attire:  We wish to promote respect and reverence for the meeting of Christ's body.  Therefore young men are expected to wear dress shirts and dress pants.  Sports jackets, suits and ties are also appropriate.  Young women are expected to wear blouses, dress pants or skirts or dresses of modest lengths and styles.
2. Leisure and recreation:  We wish to promote modesty in life and dress.  Therefore shorts less than knee length, clothing with inappropriate pictures or slogans, bare midriffs or sleeveless shirts are not acceptable.  Swimwear should be one-piece and modest.

Camper responsibilities:

       A schedule of activities and events will be provided.  Campers are expected to participate in all activities not identified as optional unless an excuse from a parent is provided.  In addition, campers will be expected to help their teams serve the camp by working in the cafeteria at scheduled times.  The "What to bring/What not to bring" section on the camp flyer and camp website outlines items not permitted at camp.  Most of all a right attitude and proper respect for fellow campers and youth workers will be expected.

Your signature on the registration form indicates that you will abide by the expectations above and that you will try your hardest to have the best time of your life at Portage Youth Camp.
